Subject: [PATCH v5 0/4] virtio_net: Add MAC and VLAN filtering

This series adds infrastructure for a new control virtqueue and
makes use of it to support set_rx_mode, unicast and multicast address
lists, and supporting a hypervisor based VLAN filter.  The goal is to
make the virtio-net device support more of the features of a physical
NIC and allow the hypervisor to discard packets we don't want.  These
patches are intended for 2.6.30.

This version is just a rebase to current net-next-2.6.git.  I'll send
Rusty an update to the patch in his queue that led to the patch
conflict, this series doesn't depend on it.
