To achieve better network performance, the key step is to distribute
the packets to dedicated queues according to policy and system run
time status.

This patch provides an interface which can return the proper dedicated
queue for socket/task. Then the packets of the socket/task will be
redirect to the dedicated queue for better network performance.

For selecting the proper queue, currently it uses round-robin
algorithm to find the available object from the given policy object
list. The algorithm is good enough for now. But it could be improved
by some adaptive algorithm later.

Seriously? You want to all of this code so we revert to TX queue selection by
round robin?

I agree that the round robin is not an optimal algorithm.
For this series, we intends to provide a generic infrastructure for review.
For the algorithm parts, it's already in our TODO list. We will replace it later.

Thanks,
