This is a mostly cosmetic rename of the SGSN netlink attribute to
the GTP link. The justification for this is that we will be making
the module support decapsulation of "downstream" SGSN packets, in
which case the netlink parameter actually refers to the upstream GGSN
peer. Renaming the parameter makes the relationship clearer.
The legacy name is maintained as a define in the header file in order
to not break existing code.

Fix clang build warning:
./include/uapi/linux/gtp.h:1:9: warning: '_UAPI_LINUX_GTP_H_' is
used as a header guard here, followed by #define of a different
macro [-Wheader-guard]
fix by defining _UAPI_LINUX_GTP_H_ and not _UAPI_LINUX_GTP_H__

This is an initial implementation of a netdev driver for GTP datapath
(GTP-U) v0 and v1, according to the GSM TS 09.60 and 3GPP TS 29.060
standards. This tunneling protocol is used to prevent subscribers from
accessing mobile carrier core network infrastructure.
This implementation requires a GGSN userspace daemon that implements the
signaling protocol (GTP-C), such as OpenGGSN [1]. This userspace daemon
updates the PDP context database that represents active subscriber
sessions through a genetlink interface.
For more context on this tunneling protocol, you can check the slides
that were presented during the NetDev 1.1 [2].
Only IPv4 is supported at this time.
