Introduce SW acceleration for IPIP tunnels in the netfilter flowtable infrastructure. This series introduces basic infrastructure to accelerate other tunnel types (e.g. IP6IP6).
Would you be so kind to rebase this series on top of:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netfilter-devel/list/?series=477081
That series should simplify the integration of your IPIP support.
Thanks.
