Eyal Birger d83f7040e1 xfrm: lwtunnel: squelch kernel warning in case XFRM encap type is not available
Ido reported that a kernel warning [1] can be triggered from
user space when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_MODULES=y and
CONFIG_XFRM=n when adding an xfrm encap type route, e.g:

$ ip route add 198.51.100.0/24 dev dummy1 encap xfrm if_id 1
Error: lwt encapsulation type not supported.

The reason for the warning is that the LWT infrastructure has an
autoloading feature which is meant only for encap types that don't
use a net device,  which is not the case in xfrm encap.

Mute this warning for xfrm encap as there's no encap module to autoload
in this case.

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.
