<title>ipv4: Move exception bucket to nh_common</title>

Similar to the cached routes, make IPv4 exceptions accessible when
using an IPv6 nexthop struct with IPv4 routes. Simplify the exception
functions by passing in fib_nh_common since that is all it needs,
and then cleanup the call sites that have extraneous fib_nh conversions.

As with the cached routes this is a change in location only, from fib_nh
up to fib_nh_common; no functional change intended.

While the cached routes, nh_pcpu_rth_output and nh_rth_input, are IPv4
specific, a later patch wants to make them accessible for IPv6 nexthops
with IPv4 routes using a fib6_nh. Move the cached routes from fib_nh to
fib_nh_common and update references.

Initialization of the cached entries is moved to fib_nh_common_init,
and free is moved to fib_nh_common_release.

Change in location only, from fib_nh up to fib_nh_common; no functional
change intended.

<title>netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag</title>

<content type='text'>
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most
netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not
setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers
not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's
mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display
the structure of their contents.

Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be
userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than
through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames
nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start()
as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually
are rewritten to use nla_nest_start().

Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using
this semantic patch:

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start(E1, E2)
+nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2)

@@ expression E1, E2; @@

<title>net: Change nhc_flags to unsigned char</title>

<content type='text'>
nhc_flags holds the RTNH_F flags for a given nexthop (fib{6}_nh).
All of the RTNH_F_ flags fit in an unsigned char, and since the API to
userspace (rtnh_flags and lower byte of rtm_flags) is 1 byte it can not
grow. Make nhc_flags in fib_nh_common an unsigned char and shrink the
size of the struct by 8, from 56 to 48 bytes.

Update the flags arguments for up netdevice events and fib_nexthop_info
which determines the RTNH_F flags to return on a dump/event. The RTNH_F
flags are passed in the lower byte of rtm_flags which is an unsigned int
so use a temp variable for the flags to fib_nexthop_info and combine
with rtm_flags in the caller.

<title>lwtunnel: Pass encap and encap type attributes to lwtunnel_fill_encap</title>

Currently, lwtunnel_fill_encap hardcodes the encap and encap type
attributes as RTA_ENCAP and RTA_ENCAP_TYPE, respectively. The nexthop
objects want to re-use this code but the encap attributes passed to
userspace as NHA_ENCAP and NHA_ENCAP_TYPE. Since that is the only
difference, change lwtunnel_fill_encap to take the attribute type as
an input.

Add support for RTA_VIA and allow an IPv6 nexthop for v4 routes:
   $ ip ro add 172.16.1.0/24 via inet6 2001:db8::1 dev eth0
   $ ip ro ls
   ...
   172.16.1.0/24 via inet6 2001:db8::1 dev eth0

For convenience and simplicity, userspace can use RTA_VIA to specify
AF_INET or AF_INET6 gateway.

The common fib_nexthop_info dump function compares the gateway address
family to the nh_common family to know if the gateway should be encoded
as RTA_VIA or RTA_GATEWAY.
