Xin Long 8c22dab03a ip6_tunnel: do not allow loading ip6_tunnel if ipv6 is disabled in cmdline
If ipv6 has been disabled from cmdline since kernel started, it makes
no sense to allow users to create any ip6 tunnel. Otherwise, it could
some potential problem.

Jianlin found a kernel crash caused by this in ip6_gre when he set
ipv6.disable=1 in grub:

[  209.588865] Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000080

This patch is to return -EOPNOTSUPP in ip6_tunnel_init if ipv6 has been
disabled from cmdline.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
