No, on purpose. Eric asked for this to go to net-next, since the bug
needs a non-default setting:
"Note that tx checksum offload is off by default on amt, so the bug
would not trigger by default."
"A better fix would be (for net-next) to call
udp_tunnel_handle_offloads() in amt_send_multicast_data() like other
UDP tunnels do"

I have not reproduced it; so far this comes from reading the code. It
would need rx-gro-list on the relay's ingress device, and tx
checksumming plus tx-scatter-gather-fraglist on the amt device (all
three off by default), and a GRO aggregate that passes ipmr's DF/MTU
check. It predates this patch, and the cover letter already lists it as
not touched and untested. I will send a separate fix for it once I have
reproduced it.
