Aya Levin e50e711351 udp_tunnel: Fix udp_tunnel_nic work-queue type
Turn udp_tunnel_nic work-queue to an ordered work-queue. This queue
holds the UDP-tunnel configuration commands of the different netdevs.
When the netdevs are functions of the same NIC the order of
execution may be crucial.

Problem example:
NIC with 2 PFs, both PFs declare offload quota of up to 3 UDP-ports.
 $ifconfig eth2 1.1.1.1/16 up

 $ip link add eth2_19503 type vxlan id 5049 remote 1.1.1.2 dev eth2 dstport 19053
 $ip link set dev eth2_19503 up

 $ip link add eth2_19504 type vxlan id 5049 remote 1.1.1.3 dev eth2 dstport 19054
 $ip link set dev eth2_19504 up

 $ip link add eth2_19505 type vxlan id 5049 remote 1.1.1.4 dev eth2 dstport 19055
 $ip link set dev eth2_19505 up

 $ip link add eth2_19506 type vxlan id 5049 remote 1.1.1.5 dev eth2 dstport 19056
 $ip link set dev eth2_19506 up

NIC RX port offload infrastructure offloads the first 3 UDP-ports (on
all devices which sets NETIF_F_RX_UDP_TUNNEL_PORT feature) and not
UDP-port 19056. So both PFs gets this offload configuration.

 $ip link set dev eth2_19504 down

This triggers udp-tunnel-core to remove the UDP-port 19504 from
offload-ports-list and offload UDP-port 19056 instead.

In this scenario it is important that the UDP-port of 19504 will be
removed from both PFs before trying to add UDP-port 19056. The NIC can
stop offloading a UDP-port only when all references are removed.
Otherwise the NIC may report exceeding of the offload quota.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
