RESEND v5:
- v5 was sent just when net-next closed
v5:
- address Paolo's comments
- s/int dst_dev_overhead()/unsigned int dst_dev_overhead()/
v4:
- move static inline function to include/net/dst.h
v3:
- fix compilation error in seg6_iptunnel
v2:
- add missing "static" keywords in seg6_iptunnel
- use a static-inline function to return the dev overhead (as suggested
  by Olek, thanks)

The same pattern is found in ioam6, rpl6, and seg6. Basically, it first
makes sure there is enough room for inserting a new header:

(1) err = skb_cow_head(skb, len + skb->mac_len);

Then, when the insertion (encap or inline) is performed, the input and
output handlers respectively make sure there is enough room for layer 2:

(2) err = skb_cow_head(skb, LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dst->dev));

skb_cow_head() does nothing when there is enough room. Otherwise, it
reallocates more room, which depends on the architecture. Briefly,
skb_cow_head() calls __skb_cow() which then calls pskb_expand_head() as
follows:

pskb_expand_head(skb, ALIGN(delta, NET_SKB_PAD), 0, GFP_ATOMIC);

"delta" represents the number of bytes to be added. This value is
aligned with NET_SKB_PAD, which is defined as follows:

NET_SKB_PAD = max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES)

... where L1_CACHE_BYTES also depends on the architecture. In our case
(x86), it is defined as follows:

L1_CACHE_BYTES = (1 << CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT)

... where (again, in our case) CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT equals 6
(=X86_GENERIC).

All this to say, skb_cow_head() would reallocate to the next multiple of
NET_SKB_PAD (in our case a 64-byte multiple) when there is not enough
room.

Back to the main issue with the pattern: in some cases, two
reallocations are triggered, resulting in a performance drop (i.e.,
lines (1) and (2) would both trigger an implicit reallocation). How's
that possible? Well, this is kind of bad luck as we hit an exact
NET_SKB_PAD boundary and when skb->mac_len (=14) is smaller than
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dst->dev) (=16 in our case). For an x86 arch, it
happens in the following cases (with the default needed_headroom):

- ioam6:
 - (inline mode) pre-allocated data trace of 236 or 240 bytes
 - (encap mode) pre-allocated data trace of 196 or 200 bytes
- seg6:
 - (encap mode) for 13, 17, 21, 25, 29, 33, ...(+4)... prefixes

Let's illustrate the problem, i.e., when we fall on the exact
NET_SKB_PAD boundary. In the case of ioam6, for the above problematic
values, the total overhead is 256 bytes for both modes. Based on line
(1), skb->mac_len (=14) is added, therefore passing 270 bytes to
skb_cow_head(). At that moment, the headroom has 206 bytes available (in
our case). Since 270 > 206, skb_cow_head() performs a reallocation and
the new headroom is now 206 + 64 (NET_SKB_PAD) = 270. Which is exactly
the room we needed. After the insertion, the headroom has 0 byte
available. But, there's line (2) where 16 bytes are still needed. Which,
again, triggers another reallocation.

The same logic is applied to seg6 (although it does not happen with the
inline mode, i.e., -40 bytes). It happens with other L1 cache shifts too
(the larger the cache shift, the less often it happens). For example,
with a +32 cache shift (instead of +64), the following number of
segments would trigger two reallocations: 11, 15, 19, ... With a +128
cache shift, the following number of segments would trigger two
reallocations: 17, 25, 33, ... And so on and so forth. Note that it is
the same for both the "encap" and "l2encap" modes. For the "encap.red"
and "l2encap.red" modes, it is the same logic but with "segs+1" (e.g.,
14, 18, 22, 26, etc for a +64 cache shift). Note also that it may happen
with rpl6 (based on some calculations), although it did not in our case.

This series provides a solution to mitigate the aforementioned issue for
ioam6, seg6, and rpl6. It provides the dst_entry (in the cache) to
skb_cow_head() **before** the insertion (line (1)). As a result, the
very first iteration would still trigger two reallocations (i.e., empty
cache), while next iterations would only trigger a single reallocation.

Add static inline dst_dev_overhead() function to include/net/dst.h. This
helper function is used by ioam6_iptunnel, rpl_iptunnel and
seg6_iptunnel to get the dev's overhead based on a cache entry
(dst_entry). If the cache is empty, the default and generic value
skb->mac_len is returned. Otherwise, LL_RESERVED_SPACE() over dst's dev
is returned.

This patch mitigates the two-reallocations issue with ioam6_iptunnel by
providing the dst_entry (in the cache) to the first call to
skb_cow_head(). As a result, the very first iteration may still trigger
two reallocations (i.e., empty cache), while next iterations would only
trigger a single reallocation.

Performance tests before/after applying this patch, which clearly shows
the improvement:
- inline mode:
  - before: https://ibb.co/LhQ8V63
  - after: https://ibb.co/x5YT2bS
- encap mode:
  - before: https://ibb.co/3Cjm5m0
  - after: https://ibb.co/TwpsxTC
- encap mode with tunsrc:
  - before: https://ibb.co/Gpy9QPg
  - after: https://ibb.co/PW1bZFT

This patch also fixes an incorrect behavior: after the insertion, the
second call to skb_cow_head() makes sure that the dev has enough
headroom in the skb for layer 2 and stuff. In that case, the "old"
dst_entry was used, which is now fixed. After discussing with Paolo, it
appears that both patches can be merged into a single one -this one-
(for the sake of readability) and target net-next.

This patch mitigates the two-reallocations issue with rpl_iptunnel by
providing the dst_entry (in the cache) to the first call to
skb_cow_head(). As a result, the very first iteration would still
trigger two reallocations (i.e., empty cache), while next iterations
would only trigger a single reallocation.

Performance tests before/after applying this patch, which clearly shows
there is no impact (it even shows improvement):
- before: https://ibb.co/nQJhqwc
- after: https://ibb.co/4ZvW6wV
