Hi all,
This patch series extracts the parts of the patch set that are likely not to be
controversial and actually bringing multi-queue support to DSA-created network
devices.
With these patches, we can now use sch_multiq as documented under
Documentation/networking/multique.txt and let applications dedice the switch
port output queue they want to use. Currently only Broadcom tags utilize that
information.
Resending based on David's feedback regarding the patches not in patchwork.
Changes in v2:
- use a proper define for the number of TX queues in bcm_sf2.c (Andrew)
Changes from RFC:
- dropped the ability to configure RX queues since we don't do anything with
those just yet
- dropped the patches that dealt with binding the DSA slave network devices
queues with their master network devices queues this will be worked on
separately.

2.11.0
Let switch drivers indicate how many TX queues they support. Some
switches, such as Broadcom Starfighter 2 are designed with 8 egress
queues. Future changes will allow us to leverage the queue mapping and
direct the transmission towards a particular queue.

We originally used skb->priority but that was not quite correct as this
bitfield needs to contain the egress switch queue we intend to send this
SKB to.

The switch supports 8 egress queues per port, so indicate that such that
net/dsa/slave.c::dsa_slave_create can allocate the right number of TX queues.
While at it use SF2_NUM_EGRESS_QUEUE as a define for the number of queues we
support.

Even though TC2QOS mapping is for switch egress queues, we need to
configure it correclty in order for the Broadcom tag ingress (CPU ->
switch) queue selection to work correctly since there is a 1:1 mapping
between switch egress queues and ingress queues.
