If we leave this check to applications, they have to call librte_ip_frag
first, then call GRO library. If they call GRO library first, error
happens. But if GRO checks if the packet is fragmented, no error happens. 
IMO, it's more flexible. Besides, for GRO library, to check if the packet
is fragmented is very simple. Just to check if DF bit is set is enough.
So I still think GRO library need to check it.
