netdevsim: Add multi-queue support
Currently netdevsim only supports a single queue per port, which is
insufficient for testing multi-queue TC schedulers e.g. sch_mq. Extend
the current sysfs interface so that users can create ports with multiple
queues:
$ echo "[ID] [PORT_COUNT] [NUM_QUEUES]" > /sys/bus/netdevsim/new_device
As an example, echoing "2 4 8" creates 4 ports, with 8 queues per port.
Note, this is compatible with the current interface, with default number
of queues set to 1. For example, echoing "2 4" creates 4 ports with 1
queue per port; echoing "2" simply creates 1 port with 1 queue.
