Now that sk_alloc knows when a kernel socket is being allocated modify
it to not reference count the network namespace of kernel sockets.
Keep track of if a socket needs reference counting by adding a flag to
struct sock called sk_net_refcnt.
Update all of the callers of sock_create_kern to stop using
sk_change_net and sk_release_kernel as those hacks are no longer
needed, to avoid reference counting a kernel socket.

This is long overdue, and is part of cleaning up how we allocate kernel
sockets that don't reference count struct net.

That was we can make sure the output path of ipv4/ipv6 operate on
the UDP socket rather than whatever random thing happens to be in
skb->sk.

The UDP tunnel transmit functions udp_tunnel_xmit_skb and
udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb include a socket argument. The socket being
passed to the functions (from VXLAN) is a UDP created for receive
side. The only thing that the socket is used for in the transmit
functions is to get the setting for checksum (enabled or zero).
This patch removes the argument and and adds a nocheck argument
for checksum setting. This eliminates the unnecessary dependency
on a UDP socket for UDP tunnel transmit.

Move convert_csum from udp_sock to inet_sock. This allows the
possibility that we can use convert checksum for different types
of sockets and also allows convert checksum to be enabled from
inet layer (what we'll want to do when enabling IP_CHECKSUM cmsg).

Added a few more UDP tunnel APIs that can be shared by UDP based
tunnel protocol implementation. The main ones are highlighted below.
setup_udp_tunnel_sock() configures UDP listener socket for
receiving UDP encapsulated packets.
udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() and upd_tunnel6_xmit_skb() transmit skb
using UDP encapsulation.
udp_tunnel_sock_release() closes the UDP tunnel listener socket.

Added udp_tunnel.c which can contain some common functions for UDP
tunnels. The first function in this is udp_sock_create which is used
to open the listener port for a UDP tunnel.
