[net-next 1/2] ipv6: sr: add a per namespace sysctl to control seg6 flowlabel

From: Ahmed Abdelsalam
Date: Mon Apr 23 2018 - 17:37:28 EST


This patch adds a per namespace sysctl, named 'seg6_flowlabel', to be used
by seg6_do_srh_encap() to control the behaviour of setting the flowlabel
value of outer IPv6.

The currently support behaviours are as follows:
-1 set flowlabel to zero.
0 copy flowlabel from Inner paceket in case of Inner IPv6 (0 for IPv4/L2)
1 Compute the flowlabel using seg6_make_flowlabel()
