userspace: Add GTP-U support.
GTP, GPRS Tunneling Protocol, is a group of IP-based communications
protocols used to carry general packet radio service (GPRS) within
GSM, UMTS and LTE networks. GTP protocol has two parts: Signalling
(GTP-Control, GTP-C) and User data (GTP-User, GTP-U). GTP-C is used
for setting up GTP-U protocol, which is an IP-in-UDP tunneling
protocol. Usually GTP is used in connecting between base station for
radio, Serving Gateway (S-GW), and PDN Gateway (P-GW).
This patch implements GTP-U protocol for userspace datapath,
supporting only required header fields and G-PDU message type.
