pfcp_net_exit() holds RTNL and cleans up all devices in the netns
and other devices tied to sockets in the netns.
We can use ->exit_rtnl() to save RTNL dance for all dying netns.
Note that we delegate the for_each_netdev() part to
default_device_exit_batch() to avoid a list corruption splat
like the one reported in commit 4ccacf8649 ("gtp: Suppress
list corruption splat in gtp_net_exit_batch_rtnl().")

Add two helper functions - rtnl_newlink_link_net() and
rtnl_newlink_peer_net() for netns fallback logic. Peer netns falls back
to link netns, and link netns falls back to source netns.
Convert the use of params->net in netdevice drivers to one of the helper
functions for clarity.

There are 4 net namespaces involved when creating links:
- source netns - where the netlink socket resides,
- target netns - where to put the device being created,
- link netns - netns associated with the device (backend),
- peer netns - netns of peer device.
Currently, two nets are passed to newlink() callback - "src_net"
parameter and "dev_net" (implicitly in net_device). They are set as
follows, depending on netlink attributes in the request.
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
| peer netns | IFLA_LINK_NETNSID | src_net | dev_net |
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
| | absent | source | target |
| absent +-------------------+---------+---------+
| | present | link | link |
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
| | absent | peer | target |
| present +-------------------+---------+---------+
| | present | peer | link |
+------------+-------------------+---------+---------+
When IFLA_LINK_NETNSID is present, the device is created in link netns
first and then moved to target netns. This has some side effects,
including extra ifindex allocation, ifname validation and link events.
These could be avoided if we create it in target netns from
the beginning.
On the other hand, the meaning of src_net parameter is ambiguous. It
varies depending on how parameters are passed. It is the effective
link (or peer netns) by design, but some drivers ignore it and use
dev_net instead.
To provide more netns context for drivers, this patch packs existing
newlink() parameters, along with the source netns, link netns and peer
netns, into a struct. The old "src_net" is renamed to "net" to avoid
confusion with real source netns, and will be deprecated later. The use
of src_net are converted to params->net trivially.

From Arnd comments:
"The memcpy() in the ip_tunnel_info_opts_set() causes
a string.h fortification warning, with at least gcc-13:
In function 'fortify_memcpy_chk',
inlined from 'ip_tunnel_info_opts_set' at include/net/ip_tunnels.h:619:3,
inlined from 'pfcp_encap_recv' at drivers/net/pfcp.c:84:2:
include/linux/fortify-string.h:553:25: error: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
553 | __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);"
It is a false-positivie caused by ambiguity of the union.
However, as Arnd noticed, copying here is unescessary. The code can be
simplified to avoid calling ip_tunnel_info_opts_set(), which is doing
copying, setting flags and options_len.
Set correct flags and options_len directly on tun_info.

Packet Forwarding Control Protocol (PFCP) is a 3GPP Protocol
used between the control plane and the user plane function.
It is specified in TS 29.244[1].
Note that this module is not designed to support this Protocol
in the kernel space. There is no support for parsing any PFCP messages.
There is no API that could be used by any userspace daemon.
Basically it does not support PFCP. This protocol is sophisticated
and there is no need for implementing it in the kernel. The purpose
of this module is to allow users to setup software and hardware offload
of PFCP packets using tc tool.
When user requests to create a PFCP device, a new socket is created.
The socket is set up with port number 8805 which is specific for
PFCP [29.244 4.2.2]. This allow to receive PFCP request messages,
response messages use other ports.
Note that only one PFCP netdev can be created.
Only IPv4 is supported at this time.
