Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] openvswitch: add IPv6 tunneling support

This builds on the previous work that added IPv6 support to lwtunnels and
adds IPv6 tunneling support to ovs; it is now pretty straightforward. 

To use IPv6 tunneling, there needs to be a metadata based tunnel net_device
created and added to the ovs bridge. Currently, only vxlan is supported by
the kernel, with geneve to follow shortly. There's no need nor intent to add
a support for this into the vport-vxlan compat layer.

  openvswitch: add tunnel protocol to sw_flow_key
  openvswitch: netlink attributes for IPv6 tunneling
