Currently the TTL is copied from the inner packet of the tunnel to
the outer packet if the inner packet is IP. This is good if your
GRE packets might make it into the input of your device but bad
if you want to be fully transparent.
This also resolves an inconsistency between tunnels set up using
the ioctl and using Netlink. The ioctl version would force PMTUD
on if a fixed TTL is set as a backup way to prevent loops but it
never made it over to the newer Netlink code so obviously no one
cares too much about it. This removes it to provide consistency
and transparency.
Basically, don't create loops and you will be happy.
fatal route to network, even if it were you who configured
fatal static route: you are innocent. :-)

+ XXX: Forcing the DF flag on was done only when setting up tunnels via the
+ ioctl interface and not Netlink. Since it prevents some operations
+ and isn't very transparent I removed it. It seems nobody really
+ cared about it anyways.
+ Moral: don't create loops.
3. Really, ipv4/ipip.c, ipv4/ip_gre.c and ipv6/sit.c contain
practically identical code. It would be good to glue them
