When calling socket lookup from L2 (tc, xdp), VRF boundaries aren't

VRF attachment when performing the socket lookups from tc/xdp.

The first two patches are coding changes which facilitate this fix by
factoring out the tc helper's logic which was shared with cg/sk_skb
(which operate correctly).
Why is not relevant for cgroup/egress? Is it already running with
the correct device?
Yes.

Also, do we really need all this refactoring and separate paths?
Can we just add that bpf_l2_sdif part to the existing code?
It will trigger for tc, but I'm assuming it will be a no-op for cgroup
path?
The reason we preferred the refactoring is to avoid triggering `inet_sdif()`
from tc/xdp. This is because in our understanding, the IPCB is undefined before
IP processing so it seems incorrect to use `inet_sdif()` from tc/xdp.

We did come up with a different option which could spare most of the refactoring
and still partially separate the two paths:

Pass sdif to __bpf_skc_lookup() but instead of using different functions
for tc, calculate sdif by calling `dev_sdif()` in bpf_skc_lookup() only when
netif_is_l3_master() is false. In other words:

- xdp callers would check the device's l3 enslaved state using the new `dev_sdif()`
- sock_addr callers would use inet{,6}_sdif() as they did before
- cg/tc share the same code path, so when netif_is_l3_master() is true
  use inet{,6}_sdif() and when it is false use dev_sdif(). this relies on the following
  assumptions:
  - tc programs don't run on l3 master devices
  - cgroup callers never see l3 enslaved devices
  - inet{,6}_sdif() isn't relevant for non l3 master devices

In our opinion, it's safer to factor out the tc flow as in the patchset, similar to XDP
which has its own functions.

What do you think?
And regarding bpf_l2_sdif: seems like it's really generic and should
probably be called something like dev_sdif?
Agreed. I'll rename in the next patch.

The third patch contains the actual bugfix.

The fourth patch adds bpf tests for these lookup functions.
