Provide a helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookups in the kernel
tables from an XDP program. The helper provides a fastpath for forwarding
packets. If the packet is a local delivery or for any reason is not a
simple lookup and forward, the packet is expected to continue up the stack
for full processing.

Patches 1-6 do some more refactoring to IPv6 with the end goal of
extracting a FIB lookup function that aligns with fib_lookup for IPv4,
basically returning a fib6_info without creating a dst based entry.

Patch 7 adds lookup functions to the ipv6 stub. These are needed since
bpf is built into the kernel and ipv6 may not be built or loaded.

Patch 8 adds the bpf helper and 9 is a sample program.

David Ahern (9):
  net/ipv6: Rename fib6_lookup to fib6_node_lookup
  net/ipv6: Rename rt6_multipath_select
  net/ipv6: Extract table lookup from ip6_pol_route
  net/ipv6: Refactor fib6_rule_action
  net/ipv6: Add fib6_lookup
  net/ipv6: Update fib6 tracepoint to take fib6_info
  net/ipv6: Add fib lookup stubs for use in bpf helper
  bpf: Provide helper to do lookups in kernel FIB table
  samples/bpf: Add examples of ipv4 and ipv6 forwarding in XDP
