pkt_sched: Add multiqueue scheduler support
This patch is intended to add a qdisc to support the new tx multiqueue
architecture by providing a band for each hardware queue. By doing
this it is possible to support a different qdisc per physical hardware
queue.
This qdisc uses the skb->queue_mapping to select which band to place
the traffic onto. It then uses a round robin w/ a check to see if the
subqueue is stopped to determine which band to dequeue the packet from.
