[PATCH 5/7] netpoll: add optional dropping and queueing support

To: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: [PATCH 5/7] netpoll: add optional dropping and queueing support
From: Matt Mackall <mpm@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu, 03 Mar 2005 14:46:32 -0600
Cc: netdev@xxxxxxxxxxx, Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@xxxxxxxxxx>
In-reply-to: <5.454130102@selenic.com>
Sender: netdev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxx
This adds a callback for packets we can't deliver immediately and a
helper function for clients to queue such packets to the device
post-interrupt. 

Netconsole is modified to use the queueing function for best-effort
delivery.
