I believe there's more to do than just my quick hack patch. At least
vxlan_vs_find_vni() probably needs to be modified too. At which point
VXLAN_F_IPV6_LINKLOCAL would become essentially unused and should be
removed.

I'll work on that after net-next reopens. I might try to make bareudp
compatible with VRF too, if time allows. If I get at least VXLAN and
bareudp to work in a multi-VRF setup, then I'll rebase the selftests on
the VRF infrastructure (and just remove the tests for tunnels still
incompatible with this setup).
