We want to make the function more generic so that it can be used by
other UDP tunnel implementations such as geneve and vxlan. To do that,
add the following arguments:
- source and destination UDP port;
- ifindex of the output interface, needed by vxlan;
- the tos, because in some cases it is not taken from struct
ip_tunnel_info (for example, when it's inherited from the inner
packet);
- the dst cache, because not all tunnel types (e.g. vxlan) want to
use the one from struct ip_tunnel_info.
With these parameters, the function no longer needs the full struct
ip_tunnel_info as argument and we can pass only the relevant part of
it (struct ip_tunnel_key).
This is similar to what already done for IPv4 in commit 72fc68c635
("ipv4: add new arguments to udp_tunnel_dst_lookup()").

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.
