[PATCH net-next] ipmr: ip6mr: Create new sockopt to clear mfc cache or vifs

From: Callum Sinclair
Date: Thu Feb 07 2019 - 23:11:09 EST


Created a way to clear the multicast forwarding cache on a socket
without having to either remove the entries manually using the delete
entry socket option or destroy and recreate the multicast socket.

Using the flags MRT_FLUSH_ENTRIES and MRT_FLUSH_VIFS, all multicast
entries can be cleared, all multicast interfaces can be closed or both
can be cleared using one sockopt call.
