Control a Virtio network device interrupt coalescing parameters
using the control virtqueue.

New VirtIO network feature: VIRTIO_NET_F_INTR_COAL.

A device that supports this fetature can receive
VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_INTR_COAL control commands.

- VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_INTR_COAL_USECS_SET:
        change the rx-usecs and tx-usecs parameters.

        rx-usecs - Time to delay an RX interrupt after packet arrival in
                microseconds.

        tx-usecs - Time to delay a TX interrupt after a sending a packet
                in microseconds.

- VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_INTR_COAL_FRAMES_SET:
        change the rx-max-frames and tx-max-frames parameters.

        rx-max-frames: Number of packets to delay an RX interrupt after
                packet arrival.

        tx-max-frames: Number of packets to delay a TX interrupt after
                sending a packet.

v2:
        - usage of __virtio vairables.
        - send commands to device only if the values have changed.

This needs review of the virtio TC, and a vote. Let's wait for this
before merging please. Until then pls post RFC patches.

For patch itself, I'm going on vacation until May 25, will review
afterwards.
