    vlan: enforce underlying device type

    Currently, VLAN devices can be created on top of non-ethernet devices.

    Besides the fact that it doesn't make much sense, this also causes a
    bug which leaks the address of a kernel function to usermode.

    When creating a VLAN device, we initialize GARP (garp_init_applicant)
    and MRP (mrp_init_applicant) for the underlying device.

    As part of the initialization process, we add the multicast address of
    each applicant to the underlying device, by calling dev_mc_add.

    __dev_mc_add uses dev->addr_len to determine the length of the new
    multicast address.

    This causes an out-of-bounds read if dev->addr_len is greater than 6,
    since the multicast addresses provided by GARP and MRP are only 6
    bytes long.

    This behaviour can be reproduced using the following commands:

    ip tunnel add gretest mode ip6gre local ::1 remote ::2 dev lo
    ip l set up dev gretest
    ip link add link gretest name vlantest type vlan id 100

    Then, the following command will display the address of garp_pdu_rcv:

    ip maddr show | grep 01:80:c2:00:00:21

    Fix the bug by enforcing the type of the underlying device during VLAN
    device initialization.
