mlxsw_spectrum supports offloading of a tc action mirred egress mirror to a gretap or an ip6gretap netdevice, which necessitates calls to functions defined in ip_gre, ip6_gre and ip6_tunnel modules. Previously this was enabled by introducing a hard dependency of MLXSW_SPECTRUM on NET_IPGRE and IPV6_GRE. However the rest of mlxsw is careful about picking which modules are absolutely required, and therefore the better approach is to make mlxsw_spectrum tolerant of absence of one or both of the GRE flavors. Hence rework the NET_IPGRE and IPV6_GRE dependencies to just guard matching modularity, and hide the corresponding code in spectrum_span.c in an #if IS_ENABLED. Mark mlxsw_sp_span_entry_tunnel_parms_common as maybe unused, to muffle warnings if neither GRE flavor is selected, which seems cleaner than introducing a composite #if.

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.
