This patch enchances a tunnel interface, like gre, to have the tunnel
encap/decap be in the context of a network namespace that is different from
the namespace of the tunnel interface.
>From userspace this feature may be configured using the new 'onetns' keyword:
ip netns exec custa ip link add dev tun1 type gre local 10.0.0.1 \
remote 10.0.0.2 onetns outside
In the above example the tunnel would be in the 'custa' namespace and the
tunnel endpoints would be in the 'outside' namespace.
Also, proposing the use of netns name 'global' to specify the global namespace.
If this patch set is accepted then I will add support for other tunnels as
well.
