Adds generic tunneling offloading support for IPv4-UDP based
tunnels.
GSO type is added to request this offload for a skb.
netdev feature NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL is added for hardware offloaded
udp-tunnel support. Currently no device supports this feature,
software offload is used.
This can be used by tunneling protocols like VXLAN.

This patch adds inner mac header. This will be used in next patch
to find tunner header length. Header len is required to copy tunnel
header to each gso segment.
This patch does not change any functionality.

Earlier SG was unset if CSUM was not available for given device to
force skb copy to avoid sending inconsistent csum.
Commit c9af6db4c1 (net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation)
added explicit flag to force copy to fix this issue. Therefore
there is no need to link SG and CSUM, following patch kills this
link between there two features.
This patch is also required following patch in series.

This patch requires multicast interface-scoped addresses to supply a
sin6_scope_id. Because the sin6_scope_id is now also correctly used
in case of interface-scoped multicast traffic this enables one to use
interface scoped addresses over interfaces which are not targeted by the
default multicast route (the route has to be put there manually, though).
getsockname() and getpeername() now return the correct sin6_scope_id in
case of interface-local mc addresses.
v2:
a) rebased ontop of patch 1/4 (now uses ipv6_addr_props)
v3:
a) reverted changes for ipv6_addr_props
v4:
a) unchanged

__ipv6_addr_needs_scope_id checks if an ipv6 address needs to supply
a 'sin6_scope_id != 0'. 'sin6_scope_id != 0' was enforced in case
of link-local addresses. To support interface-local multicast these
checks had to be enhanced and are now consolidated into these new helper
functions.
v2:
a) migrated to struct ipv6_addr_props
v3:
a) reverted changes for ipv6_addr_props
b) test for address type instead of comparing scope
v4:
a) unchanged

Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
This series contains updates to ixgbevf and e1000e.
Alex's ixgbevf patch is meant to address several race issues that become
possible because next_to_watch could possibly be set to a value that shows
that the descriptor is done when it is not. In order to correct that we
instead make next_to_watch a pointer that is set to NULL during cleanup,
and set to the eop_desc after the descriptor rings have been written.
Stephen's ixgbevf patch makes the PCI id table a const and reformats the
table to match what the ixgbe driver does.
The remaining 13 patches from Bruce are cleanup patches for e1000e to
resolve checkpatch.pl warnings/errors, removing blank lines where
necessary and fix code formatting.

Split the vSockets header into kernel and UAPI parts. The former gets the bits
that used to be in __KERNEL__ guards, while the latter gets everything that is
user-visible. Tested by compiling vsock (+transport) and a simple user-mode
vSockets application.

Resolve strict checkpatch USLEEP_RANGE checks by converting delays and
sleeps as described in ./Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt. Three
other violations of the text have also been fixed.
CHECK:USLEEP_RANGE: usleep_range is preferred over udelay; see
