v1 added a single flag, BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN, to resolve a VLAN egress to
its underlying real device plus the VLAN tag. v2 fixes a QinQ bug the bpf
ci bot found, adds the input direction Toke asked for, adds selftests,
and prepends a fix for a pre-existing l3mdev/VRF lookup bug in the helper.

Patch 1 is an independent fix: bpf_fib_lookup() never initialized the
flow's flowi_l3mdev field, so on the fib-rules path it is read before it
is written. The VRF master is then not resolved and the l3mdev rule fails
to match, so a slave ingress can fail to select its VRF table, today,
with no part of this series. The helper already initializes every other
rules-path flow field (mark, tun_key, uid); l3mdev was added to that set
later and this one was missed. CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO (the default)
masks it, which is why the VRF selftests in patch 4 pass with or without
it; built with CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN a plain bpf_fib_lookup over a
VRF slave returns NOT_FWDED without the patch and resolves with it. It is
first so the VRF behaviour the later patches document and test is well
defined. If you would rather take it through bpf or net on its own, I am
happy to send it separately. It will not apply cleanly before v6.18,
where the flowi4_dscp context line reads flowi4_tos, so a stable backport
needs a trivial context fixup.

Changes v1 -> v2:

- Fix QinQ handling (found by the bpf ci bot): resolve the immediate
  parent with vlan_dev_priv(dev)->real_dev instead of
  vlan_dev_real_dev() (which walks to the bottom of a stack), and only
  swap when that parent is a real device; stacked VLANs are left
  unchanged. The egress block is guarded with CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q.

- Add BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT for the input direction (requested by
  Toke): supply the packet tag, run the lookup on the matching VLAN
  subinterface. Exclusive with BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_TBID (shared union) and
  BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT (ingress-only); both return -EINVAL. Taking the
  tag as lookup input follows the approach David Ahern suggested in the
  2021 fwmark discussion:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/

- Both directions are network-namespace aware: a VLAN device can be
  moved to another netns while registered on its parent, so the egress
  swap is skipped (foreign parent ifindex is meaningless) and the input
  resolution fails closed for a device in another netns.

- Add 36 selftest cases plus a cross-netns subtest in
  prog_tests/fib_lookup.c, covering both directions, the neighbour path,
  OUTPUT and DIRECT|TBID, VRF (rule and DIRECT), resolution semantics
  (802.1ad, PCP/DEI, QinQ-inner, bond master and port), the frag-needed
  mtu_result, the error returns on both families, and the netns boundary
  in both directions.

- Document both flags and the now-bidirectional h_vlan_proto/h_vlan_TCI
  fields.

Open questions (defaults chosen, noted here in case a maintainer prefers
otherwise):

1. An unmatched, down, or foreign-netns tag returns
   BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NOT_FWDED, matching the DIRECT path when
   fib_get_table() finds no table, rather than a new return code.

2. BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT | BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT is rejected with
   -EINVAL; restricting now keeps relaxing later backward-compatible.

3. The name BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN_INPUT reads oddly next to
   BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT. A pair like _VLAN_EGRESS/_VLAN_INGRESS is an
   option while nothing is merged.

4. With BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_VLAN, the tc-path mtu check that runs when
   tot_len is not set follows params->ifindex, so after a swap it
   checks against the parent device rather than the VLAN device (the
   route-mtu path via tot_len is unaffected). Checking against the
   VLAN device would preserve the pre-flag semantics if that is
   preferred.

On the bot's comment-style note: the new comments keep the form that
prevails in net/core/filter.c, and checkpatch --strict is clean.
