Minor nit: I'm under the (unverified) impression that the old syntax
could help the compiler generating better code. What about storing the
diff in a local variable:

	int diff;

	diff = skb_transport_offset(p) - NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->network_offset;
	flush = __gro_receive_network_flush(th, th2, diff, false);
	if (NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->encap_mark)
		flush |= __gro_receive_network_flush(th, th2, diff, true);
