Subject: [NET-NEXT PATCH] pktgen: add full reset functionality

From: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@...el.com>

While testing pktgen, I found that sometimes my configurations from
previous runs would be left over, particularly when going from a test
with 8 threads down to a test with 4 threads.

This adds new functionality to pktgen where you can call
pgset "reset"

and it will be just like you just insmod'ed pktgen again.
