The current series was focused on IP to MPLS tunnels. But, the 
infrastructure allows associating encap state with routes and calling 
the respective encapsulation output handlers.

For MPLS-in-GRE and MPLS-in-UDP, it appears that MPLS LSP routes 
(af_mpls.c) could support associating GRE and UDP encap info (RTA_ENCAP 
and RTA_ENCAP_TYPE) similar to IP routes and the re-direction from MPLS 
to GRE or MPLS to UDP can be achieved in a similar way using the same 
infrastructure.

Thanks,
Roopa
