Sabrina Dubroca 5e95347bf4 udp: also consider secpath when evaluating ipsec use for checksumming
[ Upstream commit 1118aaa3b35157777890fffab91d8c1da841b20b ]

Commit b40c5f4fde ("udp: disable inner UDP checksum offloads in
IPsec case") tried to fix checksumming in UFO when the packets are
going through IPsec, so that we can't rely on offloads because the UDP
header and payload will be encrypted.

But when doing a TCP test over VXLAN going through IPsec transport
mode with GSO enabled (esp4_offload module loaded), I'm seeing broken
UDP checksums on the encap after successful decryption.

The skbs get to udp4_ufo_fragment/__skb_udp_tunnel_segment via
__dev_queue_xmit -> validate_xmit_skb -> skb_gso_segment and at this
point we've already dropped the dst (unless the device sets
IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE, which is not common), so need_ipsec is false and
we proceed with checksum offload.

Make need_ipsec also check the secpath, which is not dropped on this
callpath.
