s390/qeth: add TX multiqueue support for IQD devices
qeth has been supporting multiple HW Output Queues for a long time. But rather than exposing those queues to the stack, it uses its own queue selection logic in .ndo_start_xmit... with all the drawbacks that entails. Start off by switching IQD devices over to a proper mqs net_device, and converting all the netdev_queue management code. One oddity with IQD devices is the requirement to place all mcast traffic on the _highest_ established HW queue. Doing so via .ndo_select_queue seems straight-forward - but that won't work if only some of the HW queues are active (ie. when dev->real_num_tx_queues < dev->num_tx_queues), since netdev_cap_txqueue() will not allow us to put skbs on the higher queues. To make this work, we 1. let .ndo_select_queue() map all mcast traffic to netdev_queue 0, and 2. later re-map the netdev_queue and HW queue indices in .ndo_start_xmit and the TX completion handler. With this patch we default to a fixed set of 1 ucast and 1 mcast queue. Support for dynamic reconfiguration is added at a later time.
