[RFC][PATCH] Removal of FASTROUTE definition include/linux/if_packet.h

From: Rami Rosen <hidden>
Date: 2007-08-02 09:24:11

Hi,
  It seems that PACKET_FASTROUTE definition should be removed due to that
	fastroute is no longer supported.

Regards,
Rami Rosen

It's a value exported to userland, so removing it could
break application compilation, so we can't remove it.
