David Miller 4ada8db38a net: Restore NETIF_F_* bit ordering.
Commit 8ad227ff89 ("net: vlan: add 802.1ad support") added some new
NETIF_F_* features bits, but it added them in the middle of existing
values.

Userland depends upon the flag bits via the per-netdevice 'flags' sysfs
file.

So restore the previous ordering by adding the new flags at the end.

Patrick McHardy 8ad227ff89 net: vlan: add 802.1ad support
Add support for 802.1ad VLAN devices. This mainly consists of checking for
ETH_P_8021AD in addition to ETH_P_8021Q in a couple of places and check
offloading capabilities based on the used protocol.

Configuration is done using "ip link":

# ip link add link eth0 eth0.1000 \
	type vlan proto 802.1ad id 1000
# ip link add link eth0.1000 eth0.1000.1000 \
	type vlan proto 802.1q id 1000

Patrick McHardy f646968f8f net: vlan: rename NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_* feature flags to NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_*
Rename the hardware VLAN acceleration features to include "CTAG" to indicate
that they only support CTAGs. Follow up patches will introduce 802.1ad
server provider tagging (STAGs) and require the distinction for hardware not
supporting acclerating both.

Pravin B Shelar 7313626745 tunneling: Add generic Tunnel segmentation.
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.

Pravin B Shelar 68c3316311 v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE
Following patch adds GRE protocol offload handler so that
skb_gso_segment() can segment GRE packets.
SKB GSO CB is added to keep track of total header length so that
skb_segment can push entire header. e.g. in case of GRE, skb_segment
need to push inner and outer headers to every segment.
New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW
GRE TSO offload. Currently none of devices support it therefore GRE GSO
always fall backs to software GSO.

Ben Greear 5e0c03c8cd net: Support RX-ALL feature flag.
This flag requests that network devices pass all
received frames up the stack, even ones with errors
such as invalid FCS (frame check sum).  This will
allow sniffers to see bad packets and perhaps
give the user some idea how to fix the problem.

When set on hardware that supports the feature,
this causes the Ethernet FCS to be appended
to the end of the skb.

Michał Mirosław 34324dc2bf net: remove NETIF_F_NO_CSUM feature bit
Only distinct use is checking if NETIF_F_NOCACHE_COPY should be
enabled by default. The check heuristics is altered a bit here,
so it hits other people than before. The default shouldn't be
trusted for performance-critical cases anyway.

For all other uses NETIF_F_NO_CSUM is equivalent to NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.

Michał Mirosław a19f2a6df2 net: Define enum for net device features.
Define feature values by bit position instead of direct 2**i values
and force the values to be of type netdev_features_t.

Cleaned and extended from patch by Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com>:
+ added netdev_features_t casts
+ included bits under NETIF_F_GSO_MASK
+ moved feature #defines out of struct net_device definition
