[net-next,v1,05/11] vxlan: Track reserved bits explicitly as part of the configuration

Commit Message

Petr Machata Dec. 3, 2024, 2:30 p.m. UTC

In order to make it possible to configure which bits in VXLAN header should
be considered reserved, introduce a new field vxlan_config::reserved_bits.
Have it cover the whole header, except for the VNI-present bit and the bits
for VNI itself, and have individual enabled features clear more bits off
reserved_bits.

(This is expressed as first constructing a used_bits set, and then
inverting it to get the reserved_bits. The set of used_bits will be useful
on its own for validation of user-set reserved_bits in a following patch.)

The patch also moves a comment relevant to the validation from the unparsed
validation site up to the new site. Logically this patch should add the new
comment, and a later patch that removes the unparsed bits would remove the
old comment. But keeping both legs in the same patch is better from the
history spelunking point of view.
