Following patch refactors GRE code into ip tunneling code and GRE
specific code. Common tunneling code is moved to ip_tunnel module.
ip_tunnel module is written as generic library which can be used
by different tunneling implementations.
ip_tunnel module contains following components:
- packet xmit and rcv generic code. xmit flow looks like
(gre_xmit/ipip_xmit)->ip_tunnel_xmit->ip_local_out.
- hash table of all devices.
- lookup for tunnel devices.
- control plane operations like device create, destroy, ioctl, netlink
operations code.
- registration for tunneling modules, like gre, ipip etc.
- define single pcpu_tstats dev->tstats.
- struct tnl_ptk_info added to pass parsed tunnel packet parameters.
ipip.h header is renamed to ip_tunnel.h

Similar to iptunnel_xmit(), group these operations into a
helper function.
This by the way fixes the missing u64_stats_update_begin()
and u64_stats_update_end() for 32 bit arch.

At Facebook, we do Layer-3 DSR via IP-in-IP tunneling. Our load balancers wrap
an extra IP header on incoming packets so they can be routed to the backend.
In the v4 tunnel driver, when these packets fall on the default tunl0 device,
the behavior is to decapsulate them and drop them back on the stack. So our
setup is that tunl0 has the VIP and eth0 has (obviously) the backend's real
address.
In IPv6 we do the same thing, but the v6 tunnel driver didn't have this same
behavior - if you didn't have an explicit tunnel setup, it would drop the
packet.
This patch brings that v4 feature to the v6 driver.
The same IPv6 address checks are performed as with any normal tunnel,
but as the fallback tunnel endpoint addresses are unspecified, the checks
must be performed on a per-packet basis, rather than at tunnel
configuration time.

Commit a43912ab19... ("tunnel: eliminate recursion field") eliminated
use of recursion field from tunnel structures, but its definition
still exists in ip6_tnl{}.
Let's remove that unused field.

This tunnel uses its own private structure and requires separate
patch to switch from private stats to on-device ones.

Use the added dev_alloc_name() call to create tunnel device name,
rather than iterate in a hand-made loop with an artificial limit.
Thanks Patrick for noticing this.
[ The way this works is, when the device is actually registered,
the generic code noticed the '%' in the name and invokes
dev_alloc_name() to fully resolve the name. -DaveM ]

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
