Subject: [PATCH v3 net-next 0/2] TPACKET_V3 TX_RING support

This patch series allows an application to use a single PF_PACKET
descriptor and leverage the best implementations of TX_RING
and RX_RING that exist today.

Patch 1 adds the kernel/Documentation changes for TX_RING
support and patch2 adds the associated test case in selftests.

Changes since v2: additional sanity checks for setsockopt
input for TX_RING/TPACKET_V3. Refactored psock_tpacket.c
test code to avoid code duplication from V2.

  af_packet: TX_RING support for TPACKET_V3
  tools: test case for TPACKET_V3/TX_RING support
