Subject: [PATCH] mpls: allow routes on ip6gre devices

From: Saif Hasan <has@...com>

Summary:

This appears to be necessary and sufficient change to enable `MPLS` on
`ip6gre` tunnels (RFC4023).

This diff allows IP6GRE devices to be recognized by MPLS kernel module
and hence user can configure interface to accept packets with mpls
headers as well setup mpls routes on them.

Test Plan:

Test plan consists of multiple containers connected via GRE-V6 tunnel.
Then carrying out testing steps as below.

- Carry out necessary sysctl settings on all containers

```
sysctl -w net.mpls.platform_labels=65536
sysctl -w net.mpls.ip_ttl_propagate=1
sysctl -w net.mpls.conf.lo.input=1
```

- Establish IP6GRE tunnels

```
ip -6 tunnel add name if_1_2_1 mode ip6gre \
  local 2401:db00:21:6048:feed:0::1 \
  remote 2401:db00:21:6048:feed:0::2 key 1
ip link set dev if_1_2_1 up
sysctl -w net.mpls.conf.if_1_2_1.input=1
ip -4 addr add 169.254.0.2/31 dev if_1_2_1 scope link

ip -6 tunnel add name if_1_3_1 mode ip6gre \
  local 2401:db00:21:6048:feed:0::1 \
  remote 2401:db00:21:6048:feed:0::3 key 1
ip link set dev if_1_3_1 up
sysctl -w net.mpls.conf.if_1_3_1.input=1
ip -4 addr add 169.254.0.4/31 dev if_1_3_1 scope link
```

- Install MPLS encap rules on node-1 towards node-2

```
ip route add 192.168.0.11/32 nexthop encap mpls 32/64 \
  via inet 169.254.0.3 dev if_1_2_1
```

- Install MPLS forwarding rules on node-2 and node-3
```
// node2
ip -f mpls route add 32 via inet 169.254.0.7 dev if_2_4_1

// node3
ip -f mpls route add 64 via inet 169.254.0.12 dev if_4_3_1
```

- Ping 192.168.0.11 (node4) from 192.168.0.1 (node1) (where routing
  towards 192.168.0.1 is via IP route directly towards node1 from node4)
```
ping 192.168.0.11
```

- tcpdump on interface to capture ping packets wrapped within MPLS
  header which inturn wrapped within IP6GRE header

```
