    net: openvswitch: fix uAPI incompatibility with existing user space

    Few years ago OVS user space made a strange choice in the commit [1]
    to define types only valid for the user space inside the copy of a
    kernel uAPI header.  '#ifndef __KERNEL__' and another attribute was
    added later.

    This leads to the inevitable clash between user space and kernel types
    when the kernel uAPI is extended.  The issue was unveiled with the
    addition of a new type for IPv6 extension header in kernel uAPI.

    When kernel provides the OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS attribute to the
    older user space application, application tries to parse it as
    OVS_KEY_ATTR_PACKET_TYPE and discards the whole netlink message as
    malformed.  Since OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS is supplied along with
    every IPv6 packet that goes to the user space, IPv6 support is fully
    broken.

    Fixing that by bringing these user space attributes to the kernel
    uAPI to avoid the clash.  Strictly speaking this is not the problem
    of the kernel uAPI, but changing it is the only way to avoid breakage
    of the older user space applications at this point.

    These 2 types are explicitly rejected now since they should not be
    passed to the kernel.  Additionally, OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL_INFO moved
    out from the '#ifdef __KERNEL__' as there is no good reason to hide
    it from the userspace.  And it's also explicitly rejected now, because
    it's for in-kernel use only.

    Comments with warnings were added to avoid the problem coming back.

    (1 << type) converted to (1ULL << type) to avoid integer overflow on
    OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS, since it equals 32 now.

Not adding OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS in this commit as this is not
necessary.  Will be added along with the actual userspace
implementation.

This change should help avoiding incompatibility issues in the future.
