This patch adds support for manipulating vlan/tunnel mappings. The tunnel ids are globally unique and are one per-vlan. There were two trickier issues - first in order to support vlan ranges we have to compute the current tunnel id in the following way: - base tunnel id (attr) + current vlan id - starting vlan id This is in line how the old API does vlan/tunnel mapping with ranges. We already have the vlan range present, so it's redundant to add another attribute for the tunnel range end. It's simply base tunnel id + vlan range. And second to support removing mappings we need an out-of-band way to tell the option manipulating function because there are no special/reserved tunnel id values, so we use a vlan flag to denote the operation is tunnel mapping removal.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
