[PATCH net-next 1/5] vxlan: Make VXLAN default UDP port number available for others

[Shahed Shaikh <shahed.shaikh@qlogic.com>]

From: Shahed Shaikh <shahed.shaikh@qlogic.com>

Although vxlan module has capability to notify udp ports to
other interested net devices using .ndo_add_rx_vxlan_port and
.ndo_del_rx_vxlan_port, there could be some devices which support
vxlan offload but not interested in updating udp port numbers.
This may be because some hardware do not support programming multiple
udp ports and their drivers may decide to program only default udp port
into adapter. So that adapter, at least, can do offloading for
default udp port number.
