Subject: [PATCH iproute2 v3 4/4] testsuite: remove gre kmods if the test loads them

The tunnel test leaves behind link devices created by the GRE kernel
modules:

$ ip -br link
...
gre0@...E    DOWN 0.0.0.0 <NOARP>
gretap0@...E DOWN 00:00:00:00:00:00 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST>
erspan0@...E DOWN 00:00:00:00:00:00 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST>
ip6tnl0@...E DOWN :: <NOARP>
ip6gre0@...E DOWN 00:00:00:00:

$ lsmod | grep gre
ip6_gre      40960  0
ip6_tunnel   40960  1 ip6_gre
ip_gre       32768  0
ip_tunnel    24576  1 ip_gre
gre          16384  2 ip6_gre,ip_gre

Check beforehand if the gre kernel module is loaded, and if not unload
them all at the end of the test. This should avoid causing problems if
a user is already using GRE for other purposes.

v2: applied suggestions from Petr to simplify the modules parsing/unloading
v3: ditto, added reviewed-by tag
