Subject: [PATCH 1/1] sched: add head drop fifo queue
This add an additional queuing strategy, called pfifo_head_drop,
to remove the oldest skb in the case of an overflow within the queue -
the head element - instead of the last skb (tail). To remove the oldest
skb in a congested situations is useful for sensor network environments
where newer packets reflects the superior information.
