This error is not relevant to the bug that is being fixed

Same here

And here

This is really the only pertinent explanation needed for the fix.

So the issue is that -G/cfg_gro_segment enables UDP_GRO, but
-S/cfg_expected_gso_size enables recvmsg cmsg UDP_GRO. We need
gso_size to know whether discontinuities will appear, so cannot
verify payload for -G without -S. There really is no reason to
ever run the test in that configuration, should perhaps fail.

Btw title should start with PATCH net as this is a fix, instead of
PATCH linux-next. And it is verify not verifty. Also needs a Fixes tag:

Fixes: 0a9ac2e954091 ("selftests: add GRO support to udp bench rx program")

This is not the place to add a gso_size test. Drop.

Instead of adding start argument, just pass data + start as first argument.

This only test a fraction of the payload. The test should always test
the entire payload. It should just be aware of discontinuity at gso_size.
