Alexander Duyck ffcfe25bb5 net: Add support for subordinate device traffic classes
This patch is meant to provide the basic tools needed to allow us to create
subordinate device traffic classes. The general idea here is to allow
subdividing the queues of a device into queue groups accessible through an
upper device such as a macvlan.

The idea here is to enforce the idea that an upper device has to be a
single queue device, ideally with IFF_NO_QUQUE set. With that being the
case we can pretty much guarantee that the tc_to_txq mappings and XPS maps
for the upper device are unused. As such we could reuse those in order to
support subdividing the lower device and distributing those queues between
the subordinate devices.

In order to distinguish between a regular set of traffic classes and if a
device is carrying subordinate traffic classes I changed num_tc from a u8
to a s16 value and use the negative values to represent the subordinate
pool values. So starting at -1 and running to -32768 we can encode those as
pool values, and the existing values of 0 to 15 can be maintained.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
