Adding a macvlan device on top of a lowerdev that supports
the xfrm offloads fails with a new regression:
  # ip link add link ens1f0 mv0 type macvlan
  RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted

Tracing down the failure shows that the macvlan device inherits
the NETIF_F_HW_ESP and NETIF_F_HW_ESP_TX_CSUM feature flags
from the lowerdev, but with no dev-&gt;xfrmdev_ops API filled
in, it doesn't actually support xfrm.  When the request is
made to add the new macvlan device, the XFRM listener for
NETDEV_REGISTER calls xfrm_api_check() which fails the new
registration because dev-&gt;xfrmdev_ops is NULL.

The macvlan creation succeeds when we filter out the ESP
feature flags in macvlan_fix_features(), so let's filter them
out like we're already filtering out ~NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL.
When XFRM support is added in the future, we can add the flags
into MACVLAN_FEATURES.

This same problem could crop up in the future with any other
new feature flags, so let's filter out any flags that aren't
defined as supported in macvlan.

(returns dev-&gt;rx_handler_data), which was added by this commit in order
to prevent double free, is not quite correct:

  was used to register rx handler (port) in macvlan_port_create() as
  well as to unregister it in macvlan_port_destroy().
* for macvtap it always returns a valid pointer because macvtap registers
  its own rx handler before macvlan_common_newlink().

Because the macvlan_uninit would free the macvlan port, so there is one
double free case in macvlan_common_newlink. When the macvlan port is just
created, then register_netdevice or netdev_upper_dev_link failed and they
would invoke macvlan_uninit. Then it would reach the macvlan_port_destroy
which triggers the double free.

<title>macvlan/macvtap: Add support for L2 forwarding offloads with macvtap</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch reverts earlier commit b13ba1b83f52 ("macvlan: forbid L2
fowarding offload for macvtap"). The reason for reverting this is because
the original patch no longer fixes what it previously did as the
underlying structure has changed for macvtap. Specifically macvtap
originally pulled packets directly off of the lowerdev. However in commit
6acf54f1cf0a ("macvtap: Add support of packet capture on macvtap device.")
that code was changed and instead macvtap would listen directly on the
macvtap device itself instead of the lower device. As such, the L2
forwarding offload should now be able to provide a performance advantage of
skipping the checks on the lower dev while not introducing any sort of
regression.

<id>dd6b9c2c332b40f142740d1b11fb77c653ff98ea</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch intoduces a slight adjustment for macvlan to address the fact
that in source mode I was seeing two copies of any packet addressed to the
macvlan interface being delivered where there should have been only one.

The issue appears to be that one copy was delivered based on the source MAC
address and then the second copy was being delivered based on the
destination MAC address. To fix it I am just treating a unicast address
match as though it is not a match since source based macvlan isn't supposed
to be matching based on the destination MAC anyway.
