[PATCH 0/3] net: add device groups

This patchset implements network device grouping and simple manipulation
of groups. Netlink has been update to provide group information and
means of applying changes to members of a specific group via a single
message.

In addition, for testing purposes, we add a parameter to the  dummy
module. If supplied, all devices that are created are assigned to the
specified group.

I will follow up with a patchset which updates iproute2 to use the new
parameters.
