[PATCH net-next] flow_dissector: dissect tunnel info outside __skb_flow_dissect()

From: Simon Horman <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-04 10:31:59

Move dissection of tunnel info to outside of the main flow dissection
function, __skb_flow_dissect(). The sole user of this feature, the flower
classifier, is updated to call tunnel info dissection directly, using
skb_flow_dissect_tunnel_info().

This results in a slightly less complex implementation of
__skb_flow_dissect(), in particular removing logic from that call path
which is not used by the majority of users. The expense of this is borne by
the flower classifier which now has to make an extra call for tunnel info
dissection.

This patch should not result in any behavioural change.

Ok, let's see where this goes :-)

Applied, thanks.
