datapath: Avoid accesses past the end of skbuff data in actions.
Some of the flow actions that modify skbuff data did not check that the
skbuff was long enough before doing so. This commit fixes that problem.
Previously, the strategy for avoiding this was to only indicate the layer-3
nw_proto field in the flow if the corresponding layer-4 header was fully
present, so that if, for example, nw_proto was IPPROTO_TCP, this meant
that a TCP header was present. The original motivation for this patch was
to add corresponding code to only indicate a layer-2 dl_type if the
corresponding layer-3 header was fully present. But I'm now convinced that
this approach is conceptually wrong, because the meaning of a layer-N
header should not be affected by the meaning of a layer-(N+1) header.
This commit switches to a new approach. Now, when a header is missing, its
fields in the flow are simply zeroed and have no effect on the "type" field
for the outer header. Responsibility for ensuring that a header is fully
present is now shifted to the actions that wish to modify that header.

ofproto: Avoid user->kernel->user round-trip for many controller actions.
When an OpenFlow flow says to send packets to the controller, until now
ofproto has executed that using dpif_execute(), which passes the packet up
to the kernel. The kernel queues the packet into its "action" queue, and
then later ofproto pulls the packet back down from the kernel and sends it
to the controller.
However, this is unnecessary. Open vSwitch can just recognize in advance
that it will get the packet back and handle it directly, skipping the round
trip. This commit implements this optimization.
This generally affects only the first packet in a flow, since generally the
rest come directly down from the kernel. It only optimizes the "easy" case
where the first action in a flow is to send the packet to the controller,
since this seems to be the common case in the flows that I'm looking at
now.

datapath: Add support for tunnel fragmentation.
Up until now it was assumed that encapsulated packets larger than
the MTU would be fragmented by the IP stack. However, some
tunneling protocols provide their own fragmentation mechanism. This
adds the necessary support to the generic tunnel code to support
fragmentation.

netdev-gre: Genericize GRE netdev.
Since the GRE netdev doesn't actually implement any of the GRE
protocol, none of the code is really specific to GRE. This commit
makes the netdev a little more generic so that additional tunnel
types can easily piggyback on it in the future.

datpath: Avoid reporting half updated statistics.
We enforce mutual exclusion when updating statistics by disabling
bottom halves and only writing to per-CPU state. However, reading
requires looking at the statistics for foreign CPUs, which could be
in the process of updating them since there isn't a lock. This means
we could get garbage values for 64-bit values on 32-bit machines or
byte counts that don't correspond to packet counts, etc.
This commit introduces a sequence lock for statistics values to avoid
this problem. Getting a write lock is very cheap - it only requires
incrementing a counter plus a memory barrier (which is compiled away
on x86) to acquire or release the lock and will never block. On
read we spin until the sequence number hasn't changed in the middle
of the operation, indicating that the we have a consistent set of
values.

gre: Don't require incoming checksum.
The current meaning of the GRE checksum option is to include
checksums on transmit and require packets to have them on receive.
In addition, incoming packets with checksums are always validated
regardless of this option. Requiring checksums on receive creates
surprising behavior and interoperability issues. This disables the
requirement on receive. The new behavior is that the sender decides
whether to checksum packets and the receiver will validate packets
with checksums (similar to UDP).

gre: Disable checksums by default.
GRE checksums aren't really all that useful because they only
add value for the GRE and inner Ethernet header. However, they
are expensive since they cover the entire packet, even though
most of the data is protected by L3 and L4 checksums. Therefore
disable checksumming by default to improve performance. In addition,
since CAPWAP doesn't support checksums this makes it consistent with
GRE.
