tl;dr
=====

This patchset implements MDB support in the VXLAN driver, allowing it to
selectively forward IP multicast traffic to VTEPs with interested
receivers instead of flooding it to all the VTEPs as BUM. The motivating
use case is intra and inter subnet multicast forwarding using EVPN
[1][2], which means that MDB entries are only installed by the user
space control plane and no snooping is implemented, thereby avoiding a
lot of unnecessary complexity in the kernel.
