net: add option to not create fall-back tunnels in root-ns as well
The sysctl that was added earlier by commit 79134e6ce2c ("net: do not create fallback tunnels for non-default namespaces") to create fall-back only in root-ns. This patch enhances that behavior to provide option not to create fallback tunnels in root-ns as well. Since modules that create fallback tunnels could be built-in and setting the sysctl value after booting is pointless, so added a kernel cmdline options to change this default. The default setting is preseved for backward compatibility. The kernel command line option of fb_tunnels=initns will set the sysctl value to 1 and will create fallback tunnels only in initns while kernel cmdline fb_tunnels=none will set the sysctl value to 2 and fallback tunnels are skipped in every netns.
