Subject: ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops on fb tunnel
From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit bb8140947a247b9aa15652cc24dc555ebb0b64b0 ]
rtnl ops where introduced by c075b13098b3 ("ip6tnl: advertise tunnel param via
rtnl"), but I forget to assign rtnl ops to fb tunnels.
Now that it is done, we must remove the explicit call to
unregister_netdevice_queue(), because the fallback tunnel is added to the queue
in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels() when checking rtnl_link_ops of all netdevices (this
is valid since commit 0bd8762824e7 ("ip6tnl: add x-netns support")).
