I also have a version against current net-next/master, in case anyone is interested..

Subject: [PATCH] gtp: support SGSN-side tunnels

The GTP-tunnel driver is explicitly GGSN-side as it searches for PDP
contexts based on the incoming packets _destination_ address.  For
real-world use cases, this is sufficient, as the other side of a GTP
tunnel is not in fact implemented by GTP, but by the protocol stacking
of a mobile station / user equipment on the radio interface (like PDCP,
SNDCP).

However, if we want to simulate the mobile station, radio access network
and SGSN (for example to test the GGSN side implementation), then we
want to be identifying PDP contexts based on _source_ address.

This patch adds a "role" attribute at GTP-link creation time to specify
whether we behave like the GGSN or SGSN role of the tunnel; this
attribute is then used to determine which part of the IP packet to use
in determining the PDP context.
