xen-netfront: Add support for multiple queues
Build on the refactoring of the previous patch to implement multiple queues between xen-netfront and xen-netback. Check XenStore for multi-queue support, and set up the rings and event channels accordingly. Write ring references and event channels to XenStore in a queue hierarchy if appropriate, or flat when using only one queue. Update the xennet_select_queue() function to choose the queue on which to transmit a packet based on the skb hash result. Signed-off-by: Andrew J.
