I think my comments on v1 one this patch were overlooked (about the
UDP_TUNNEL dependency and the name).

It seems like we could just merge these functions. I'm not sure that
the role is all that different.

In geneve_build_skb(), the error labels are somewhat confusing (for
example, free_rt doesn't free the rt). Also, is it right that we don't
free the rt if udp_tunnel_handle_offloads() fails()? It might be
cleaner if the caller retains ownership of rt.

My guess is that if the issue from the earlier patch about overlapping
collect_md tunnels is fixed then that might allow us to simplify
things a little further, since for those tunnels we can assume there
is a 1:1 mapping between collect_md tunnels and sockets.
