Requesting comments.

So, bacically commit 56b765b79 (htb: improved accuracy at high rates),
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.  As it didn't update the iproute tc util.

Treating this as a regression fix, this is the smallest and least
intrusive solution I could come up with.

I'm basically restoring the "linklayer atm" handling, by using the
__reserved field in struct tc_ratespec, to convey the chosen
linklayer option.


KERNEL patch:
=============

[PATCH RFC] net_sched: restore "linklayer atm" handling

From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <[email protected]>

commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.

 tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm

This patch restores the "linklayer atm" handling, by using the
__reserved field in struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen
linklayer option.

This requires a corrosponding iproute2 tc fix, that updates this
field.  Older tc binaries can be detected by the kernel, as the
field would be zero.
