af_packet: Add Queue mapping mode to af_packet fanout operation
This patch adds a queue mapping mode to the fanout operation of af_packet sockets. This allows user space af_packet users to better filter on flows ingressing and egressing via a specific hardware queue, and avoids the potential packet reordering that can occur when FANOUT_CPU is being used and irq affinity varies. Tested successfully by myself. applies to net-next Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
