Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next v2] tc/htb: Hierarchical QoS hardware offload

This commit adds support for configuring HTB in offload mode. HTB
offload eliminates the single qdisc lock in the datapath and offloads
the algorithm to the NIC. The new 'offload' parameter is added to
enable this mode:

    # tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root handle 1: htb offload

Classes are created as usual, but filters should be moved to clsact for
lock-free classification (filters attached to HTB itself are not
supported in the offload mode):

    # tc filter add dev eth0 egress protocol ip flower dst_port 80
    action skbedit priority 1:10
