============================================================ =
Since the netlink NEWLINK interface is now in the netdev tree
I resend the veth driver patch as "submittion for inclusion".
============================================================ =

LOG:

Veth stands for Virtual ETHernet. It is a simple tunnel driver
that works at the link layer and looks like a pair of ethernet
devices interconnected with each other.

Mainly it allows to communicate between network namespaces but
it can be used as is as well.

Eric recently sent a similar driver called etun with the sysfs
interface. This implementation uses another interface - the
RTM_NRELINK message introduced by Patric.

The newlink callback is organized that way to make it easy to
create the peer device in the separate namespace when we have
them in kernel.

Changes from v.2:
* Rebase over latest netdev tree. No actual changes;
* Small code rework.

Changes from v.1:
* percpu statistics;
* standard convention for nla policy names;
* module alias added;
* xmit function fixes noticed by Patric;
* code cleanup.

The patch for an ip utility is also provided.
