Currently the needed_headroom field for the geneve device is left
to the default value.
This patch set it to space required for basic geneve encapsulation,
so that we can avoid the skb head re-allocation on xmit.
This give a 6% speedup for unsegment traffic on geneve tunnel.
v1 -> v2:
- add ETH_HLEN for the lower device to the needed headroom

Other callers of udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb just pass 0 for the prio
argument. Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> suggested that prio is really
the same as IPv4's tos and should be handled the same, so this is my
interpretation of that suggestion.

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.

Before lightweight tunnels existed, it really didn't make sense to
create a tunnel that was not fully specified, such as without a
destination IP address - the resulting packets would go nowhere.
However, with lightweight tunnels, the opposite is true - it doesn't
make sense to require this information when it will be provided later
on by the route. This loosens the requirements for this information.
An alternative would be to allow the relaxed version only when
COLLECT_METADATA is enabled. However, since there are several
variations on this theme (such as NBMA tunnels in GRE), just dropping
the restrictions seems the most consistent across tunnels and with
the existing configuration.

Partially due to a pre-exising "thinko", the new metadata-based tx/rx
paths were handling ECN propagation differently than the traditional
tx/rx paths. This patch removes the "thinko" (involving multiple
ip_hdr assignments) on the rx path and corrects the ECN handling on
both the rx and tx paths.

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.
