Subject: [RFC v2 PATCH 5/4 PATCH] virtio-net: send gratuitous packet when
	needed

This make let virtio-net driver can send gratituous packet by a new
config bit - VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE in each config update
interrupt. When this bit is set by backend, the driver would schedule
a workqueue to send gratituous packet through NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS.

This feature is negotiated through bit VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE.
