ip6gre tunnels fail to be decapsulated in v6.12.67 so never appears on 
the GRE interface.

Reverting the following commit fixes it:

commit df5ffde9669314500809bc498ae73d6d3d9519ac

     ip6_tunnel: use skb_vlan_inet_prepare() in __ip6_tnl_rcv()

     [ Upstream commit 81c734dae203757fb3c9eee6f9896386940776bd ]

v6.19 works but I've not been able to identify a subsequent commit that 
should also be backported to the stable tree.
