vxlan: Track reserved bits explicitly as part of the configuration
In order to make it possible to configure which bits in VXLAN header should be considered reserved, introduce a new field vxlan_config::reserved_bits. Have it cover the whole header, except for the VNI-present bit and the bits for VNI itself, and have individual enabled features clear more bits off reserved_bits. (This is expressed as first constructing a used_bits set, and then inverting it to get the reserved_bits. The set of used_bits will be useful on its own for validation of user-set reserved_bits in a following patch.) The patch also moves a comment relevant to the validation from the unparsed validation site up to the new site. Logically this patch should add the new comment, and a later patch that removes the unparsed bits would remove the old comment. But keeping both legs in the same patch is better from the history spelunking point of view. Signed-off-by:Petr Machata <petrm@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by:
