Lost in space for a long time, but it finally came back to us from some ancient code tombs. This patch adds a minimal runnable example of Linux' packet mmap(2) from Chetan Loke's TPACKET_V3. Special thanks to David S. Miller, and also Eric Leblond and Victor Julien!

Hm, well. Actually, it should serve as nothing more than a code example that does nothing useful except shows how to use it. Just like the packet fanout example in the same file. It should just provide a starting point for people to grab it and build something bigger out of it. In a follow-up patch I could add a test case, /specificly designed/ to do basic sanity checks. I think if people are looking for that, they might not be starting under tools/testing/selftests/net, no?
