This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.
===============
[ Upstream commit 5a4552752d8f7f4cef1d98775ece7adb7616fde2 ]
Before the patch, it was possible to add two times the same tunnel:
ip l a gre1 type gre remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249
ip l a gre2 type gre remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249
It was possible, because ip_tunnel_newlink() calls ip_tunnel_find() with the
argument dev->type, which was set only later (when calling ndo_init handler
in register_netdevice()). Let's set this type in the setup handler, which is
called before newlink handler.
Introduced by commit c54419321455 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.").
