net: rmnet_data: Disable generic receive offload by default

Generic receive offload is enabled by default on a net_device
whenever it is registered. In case of rmnet_data, a physical
device could theoretically pass cloned frames and rmnet_data
would pass on these cloned frames to GRO framework. This
would cause memory corruption or crashes since GRO modifies
the skb shared info which is shared across clones.

While cloned frames are usually not sent to rmnet_data, this
configuration actually requires userspace intervention. If
userspace does not makes appropriate calls to kernel, we will
run into crashes. Handle this scenario by disabling GRO by
default. Userspace will need to explicitly enable GRO if
required to do so.
