[ Upstream commit 7e059158d57b79159eaf1f504825d19866ef2c42 ]

Prior to 4.3, openvswitch tunnel vports (vxlan, gre and geneve) could
transmit vxlan packets of any size, constrained only by the ability to
send out the resulting packets.  4.3 introduced netdevs corresponding
to tunnel vports.  These netdevs have an MTU, which limits the size of
a packet that can be successfully encapsulated.  The default MTU
values are low (1500 or less), which is awkwardly small in the context
of physical networks supporting jumbo frames, and leads to a
conspicuous change in behaviour for userspace.

Instead, set the MTU on openvswitch-created netdevs to be the relevant
maximum (i.e. the maximum IP packet size minus any relevant overhead),
effectively restoring the behaviour prior to 4.3.

[ Upstream commit c868ee7063bdb53f3ef9eac7bcec84960980b471 ]

the commit 35e2d1152b22 ("tunnels: Allow IPv6 UDP checksums to be
correctly controlled.") changed the default xmit checksum setting
for lwt vxlan/geneve ipv6 tunnels, so that now the checksum is not
set into external UDP header.
This commit changes the rx checksum setting for both lwt vxlan/geneve
devices created by openvswitch accordingly, so that lwt over ipv6
tunnel pairs are again able to communicate with default values.

While transitioning to netdev based vport we broke OVS
feature which allows user to retrieve tunnel packet egress
information for lwtunnel devices.  Following patch fixes it
by introducing ndo operation to get the tunnel egress info.
Same ndo operation can be used for lwtunnel devices and compat
ovs-tnl-vport devices. So after adding such device operation
we can remove similar operation from ovs-vport.

Fixes: 614732eaa12d ("openvswitch: Use regular VXLAN net_device device").

With use of lwtunnel, we can directly call dev_queue_xmit()
rather than calling netdev vport send operation.
Following change make tunnel vport code bit cleaner.

For metadata based vxlan interface, open both IPv4 and IPv6 socket. This is
much more user friendly: it's not necessary to create two vxlan interfaces
and pay attention to using the right one in routing rules.

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.

IFLA_VXLAN_FLOWBASED is useless without IFLA_VXLAN_COLLECT_METADATA,
so combine them into single IFLA_VXLAN_COLLECT_METADATA flag.
'flowbased' doesn't convey real meaning of the vxlan tunnel mode.
This mode can be used by routing, tc+bpf and ovs.
Only ovs is strictly flow based, so 'collect metadata' is a better
name for this tunnel mode.
