This patch series add a few more UDP tunnel APIs and refactoring current
UDP tunnel based protocols, vxlan and l2tp to make use of the new APIs.

The added APIs are setup_udp_tunnel_sock(), udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() and 
udp_tunnel_sock_release(). Those implementation logics already exist in
current vxlan and l2tp implementation. Move them to common APIs to reduce
code duplications.

Also split udp_tunnel.c into net/ipv4/udp_tunnel.c and
net/ipv6/ip6_udp_tunnel.c to maintain proper IP protocol separation.

Andy Zhou (4):
  udp_tunnel: Seperate ipv6 functions into its own file.
  udp-tunnel: Add a few more UDP tunnel APIs
  vxlan: Refactor vxlan driver to make use of the common UDP tunnel
    functions.
  l2tp: Refactor l2tp core driver to make use of the common UDP tunnel
    functions
