lwtunnel: valid encap attr check should return 0 when lwtunnel is disabled
An error was reported upgrading to 4.9.8: root@Typhoon:~# ip route add default table 210 nexthop dev eth0 via 10.68.64.1 weight 1 nexthop dev eth0 via 10.68.64.2 weight 1 RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported The problem occurs when CONFIG_LWTUNNEL is not enabled and a multipath route is submitted. The point of lwtunnel_valid_encap_type_attr is catch modules that need to be loaded before any references are taken with rntl held. With CONFIG_LWTUNNEL disabled, there will be no modules to load so the lwtunnel_valid_encap_type_attr stub should just return 0.
