[ Upstream commit ab30e4d4b2 ]
There are two main differences between Spectrum-1 and newer ASICs in
terms of IP-in-IP support:
1. In Spectrum-1, RIFs representing ip6gre tunnels require two entries
in the RIF table.
2. In Spectrum-2 and newer ASICs, packets ingress the underlay (during
encapsulation) and egress the underlay (during decapsulation) via a
special generic loopback RIF.
The first difference was handled in previous patches by adding the
'double_rif_entry' field to the Spectrum-1 operations structure of
ip6gre RIFs. The second difference is handled during RIF creation, by
only creating a generic loopback RIF in Spectrum-2 and newer ASICs.
Therefore, the ip6gre operations can be shared between Spectrum-1 and
newer ASIC in a similar fashion to how the ipgre operations are shared.
Rename the operations to not be Spectrum-2 specific and move them
earlier in the file so that they could later be used for Spectrum-1.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
