This patch adds a new option CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_LWTUNNEL to enable/disable
support of encapsulation with the lightweight tunnels. When this option
is enabled, CONFIG_LWTUNNEL is automatically selected.
Fix commit 6c8702c60b ("ipv6: sr: add support for SRH encapsulation and injection with lwtunnels")
Without a proper option to control lwtunnel support for SR-IPv6, if
CONFIG_LWTUNNEL=n then the IPv6 initialization fails as a consequence
of seg6_iptunnel_init() failure with EOPNOTSUPP:
NET: Registered protocol family 10
IPv6: Attempt to unregister permanent protocol 6
IPv6: Attempt to unregister permanent protocol 136
IPv6: Attempt to unregister permanent protocol 17
NET: Unregistered protocol family 10
Tested (compiling, booting, and loading ipv6 module when relevant)
with possible combinations of CONFIG_IPV6={y,m,n},
CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_LWTUNNEL={y,n} and CONFIG_LWTUNNEL={y,n}.

This patch provides an implementation of the genetlink commands
to associate a given HMAC key identifier with an hashing algorithm
and a secret.

This patch creates a new type of interfaceless lightweight tunnel (SEG6),
enabling the encapsulation and injection of SRH within locally emitted
packets and forwarded packets.
>From a configuration viewpoint, a seg6 tunnel would be configured as follows:
ip -6 ro ad fc00::1/128 encap seg6 mode encap segs fc42::1,fc42::2,fc42::3 dev eth0
Any packet whose destination address is fc00::1 would thus be encapsulated
within an outer IPv6 header containing the SRH with three segments, and would
actually be routed to the first segment of the list. If `mode inline' was
specified instead of `mode encap', then the SRH would be directly inserted
after the IPv6 header without outer encapsulation.
The inline mode is only available if CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_INLINE is enabled. This
feature was made configurable because direct header insertion may break
several mechanisms such as PMTUD or IPSec AH.

This patch adds the necessary hooks and structures to provide support
for SR-IPv6 control plane, essentially the Generic Netlink commands
that will be used for userspace control over the Segment Routing
kernel structures.
The genetlink commands provide control over two different structures:
tunnel source and HMAC data. The tunnel source is the source address
that will be used by default when encapsulating packets into an
outer IPv6 header + SRH. If the tunnel source is set to :: then an
address of the outgoing interface will be selected as the source.
The HMAC commands currently just return ENOTSUPP and will be implemented
in a future patch.
