net: add gro_cells infrastructure
This adds a new include file (include/net/gro_cells.h), to bring GRO (Generic Receive Offload) capability to tunnels, in a modular way. Because tunnels receive path is lockless, and GRO adds a serialization using a napi_struct, I chose to add an array of up to DEFAULT_MAX_NUM_RSS_QUEUES cells, so that multi queue devices wont be slowed down because of GRO layer. skb_get_rx_queue() is used as selector. In the future, we might add optional fanout capabilities, using rxhash for example. With help from Ben Hutchings who reminded me netif_get_num_default_rss_queues() function.
