I don't think they are, net/config defines CONFIG_VXLAN, but then the
vxlan tests still complain about unknown device type. Though maybe
there's another device type that it's missing...
What do I do to feed the config file to some build script to get a
kernel image to test? I can of course just do something like
cat config | xargs -n1 scripts/config -m, but I expect there's some
automation for it and I just can't find it.
