6f52b16c5b License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

fe881ef11c gue: Use checksum partial with remote checksum offload
Change remote checksum handling to set checksum partial as default
behavior. Added an iflink parameter to configure not using
checksum partial (calling csum_partial to update checksum).

37dd024779 gue: Receive side for Generic UDP Encapsulation
This patch adds support receiving for GUE packets in the fou module. The
fou module now supports direct foo-over-udp (no encapsulation header)
and GUE. To support this a type parameter is added to the fou netlink
parameters.

For a GUE socket we define gue_udp_recv, gue_gro_receive, and
gue_gro_complete to handle the specifics of the GUE protocol. Most
of the code to manage and configure sockets is common with the fou.

23461551c0 fou: Support for foo-over-udp RX path
This patch provides a receive path for foo-over-udp. This allows
direct encapsulation of IP protocols over UDP. The bound destination
port is used to map to an IP protocol, and the XFRM framework
(udp_encap_rcv) is used to receive encapsulated packets. Upon
reception, the encapsulation header is logically removed (pointer
to transport header is advanced) and the packet is reinjected into
the receive path with the IP protocol indicated by the mapping.

Netlink is used to configure FOU ports. The configuration information
includes the port number to bind to and the IP protocol corresponding
to that port.

This should support GRE/UDP
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-yong-tsvwg-gre-in-udp-encap-02),
as will as the other IP tunneling protocols (IPIP, SIT).
