3.13.11-ckt13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben at decadent.org.uk>

[ Upstream commit de11b0e8c569b96c2cf6a811e3805b7aeef498a3 ]

These drivers now call ipv6_proxy_select_ident(), which is defined
only if CONFIG_INET is enabled.  However, they have really depended
on CONFIG_INET for as long as they have allowed sending GSO packets
from userland.
