5.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiapeng Chong <redacted>

[ Upstream commit f00909e2e6fe4ac6b2420e3863a0c533fe4f15e0 ]

The function ip6gre_tnl_addr_conflict() is defined in the ip6_gre.c file,
but not called elsewhere, so delete this unused function.

net/ipv6/ip6_gre.c:887:20: warning: unused function 'ip6gre_tnl_addr_conflict'.
