Subject: [PATCHv5 net 3/8] gtp: do not confirm neighbor when do pmtu update

When do IPv6 tunnel PMTU update and calls __ip6_rt_update_pmtu() in the end,
we should not call dst_confirm_neigh() as there is no two-way communication.

Although GTP only support ipv4 right now, and __ip_rt_update_pmtu() does not
call dst_confirm_neigh(), we still set it to false to keep consistency with
IPv6 code.

v5: No change.
v4: No change.
v3: Do not remove dst_confirm_neigh, but add a new bool parameter in
    dst_ops.update_pmtu to control whether we should do neighbor confirm.
    Also split the big patch to small ones for each area.
v2: Remove dst_confirm_neigh in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu.
