Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.

Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.

Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y

The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.

As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.

This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.

Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :

	dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
	netif_keep_dst(dev);

Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.

The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Call skb_set_inner_protocol to set inner Ethernet protocol to
protocol being encapsulation by GRE before tunnel_xmit. This is
needed for GSO if UDP encapsulation (fou) is being done.

Added netlink attrs to configure FOU encapsulation for GRE, netlink
handling of these flags, and properly adjust MTU for encapsulation.
ip_tunnel_encap is called from ip_tunnel_xmit to actually perform FOU
encapsulation.

There is no need to require forcing device down on a Ethernet GRE (gretap)
tunnel to change the MAC address.

This patch allows to switch the netns when packet is encapsulated or
decapsulated. In other word, the encapsulated packet is received in a netns,
where the lookup is done to find the tunnel. Once the tunnel is found, the
packet is decapsulated and injecting into the corresponding interface which
stands to another netns.

When one of the two netns is removed, the tunnel is destroyed.

Before the patch, it was possible to add two times the same tunnel:
ip l a gre1 type gre remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249
ip l a gre2 type gre remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249

It was possible, because ip_tunnel_newlink() calls ip_tunnel_find() with the
argument dev->type, which was set only later (when calling ndo_init handler
in register_netdevice()). Let's set this type in the setup handler, which is
called before newlink handler.

When dealing with icmp messages, the skb->data points the
ip header that triggered the sending of the icmp message.

In gre_cisco_err(), the parse_gre_header() is called, and the
iptunnel_pull_header() is called to pull the skb at the end of
the parse_gre_header(), so the skb->data doesn't point the
inner ip header.

Unfortunately, the ipgre_err still needs those ip addresses in
inner ip header to look up tunnel by ip_tunnel_lookup().

So just use icmp_hdr() to get inner ip header instead of skb->data.

Replace some dev_kfree_skb() with kfree_skb() calls when
we drop one skb, this might help bug tracking.

ipgre_header_parse() needs to parse the tunnel's ip header and it
uses mac_header to locate the iphdr. This got broken when gre tunneling
was refactored as mac_header is no longer updated to point to iphdr.
Introduce skb_pop_mac_header() helper to do the mac_header assignment
and use it in ipgre_rcv() to fix msg_name parsing.

Bug introduced in commit c54419321455 (GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.)
