This patch adds a new structure geneve_config and moves the per-device
configuration attributes to it, like we already have in VXLAN with
struct vxlan_config. This ends up being pretty invasive since those
attributes are used everywhere.
This allows us to clean up the argument lists for geneve_configure (4
arguments instead of 8) and geneve_nl2info (5 instead of 9).
This also reduces the copy-paste of code setting those attributes
between geneve_configure and geneve_changelink to a single memcpy,
which would have avoided the bug fixed in commit
56c09de347 ("geneve: allow changing DF behavior after creation").

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.
