Currently tun-info options pointer is used in few cases to
pass options around. But tunnel options can be accessed using
ip_tunnel_info_opts() API without using the pointer. Following
patch removes the redundant pointer and consistently make use
of API.

Geneve can benefit from GRO at the device level in a manner similar
to other tunnels, especially as hardware offloads are still emerging.
After this patch, aggregated frames are seen on the tunnel interface.
Single stream throughput nearly doubles in ideal circumstances (on
old hardware).

There's currently nothing preventing directing packets with IPv6
encapsulation data to IPv4 tunnels (and vice versa). If this happens,
IPv6 addresses are incorrectly interpreted as IPv4 ones.
Track whether the given ip_tunnel_key contains IPv4 or IPv6 data. Store this
in ip_tunnel_info. Reject packets at appropriate places if they are supposed
to be encapsulated into an incompatible protocol.

The mode field holds a single bit of information only (whether the
ip_tunnel_info struct is for rx or tx). Change the mode field to bit flags.
This allows more mode flags to be added.

geneve_core module handles send and receive functionality.
This way OVS could use the Geneve API. Now with use of
tunnel meatadata mode OVS can directly use Geneve netdevice.
So there is no need for separate module for Geneve. Following
patch consolidates Geneve protocol processing in single module.

can be used by tunnel metadata based routing or by OVS.

simplify tunnel lookup further.

This is an initial implementation of a netdev driver for GENEVE
tunnels. This implementation uses a fixed UDP port, and only supports
point-to-point links with specific partner endpoints. Only IPv4
links are supported at this time.
