We have very similar code for rx statistics in
two places in the macvlan driver, with a third
one being added in the next patch.
Consolidate them into one function to improve
overall readability of the driver.

This allows each macvlan slave device to be in one
of three modes, depending on the use case:
MACVLAN_PRIVATE:
The device never communicates with any other device
on the same upper_dev. This even includes frames
coming back from a reflective relay, where supported
by the adjacent bridge.
The veth driver contains code to forward an skb
from the start_xmit function of one network
device into the receive path of another device.
Moving that code into a common location lets us
reuse the code for direct forwarding of data
between macvlan ports, and possibly in other
drivers.
In order to support all three modes of macvlan at
runtime, extend the existing netlink protocol
to allow choosing the mode per macvlan slave
interface.
This depends on a matching patch to iproute2
in order to become accessible in user land.

Second version, all feedback so far addressed, thanks for the
help and interest!
The patch to iproute2 has not changed, so I'm not including
it this time. Patch 4/4 (the netlink interface) is basically
unchanged as well but included for completeness.
The other changes have moved forward a bit,
