[PATCH] net: geneve: accept every ethertype

From: Josef Miegl
Date: Sun Feb 26 2023 - 16:33:04 EST


This patch removes a restriction that prohibited receiving ethertypes
other than IPv4,IPv6 and Ethernet.

With IFLA_GENEVE_INNER_PROTO_INHERIT flag set, GENEVE interface can now
receive ethertypes such as MPLS.
