It seems like the skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type check should be in some more
generic ndo_gso_check that drivers can default to/extend. Then, we could
end up with something like

static bool fm10k_gso_check(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev)
{
if (skb_gso_check(skb, dev) && !fm10k_tx_encap_offload(skb))
return false;

return true;
}

This could even be simplified and still legible as

static bool fm10k_gso_check(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev)
{
return !(skb_gso_check(skb, dev) && !fm10k_tx_encap_offload(skb));
}

What do you think of this approach?
