Changes:
v3->v2: rebase (no other changes)
passes selftest
v2->v1: read f->num_members only once
fix bug: test rollover mode + flag
Minimize packet drop in a fanout group. If one socket is full,
roll over packets to another from the group. Maintain flow
affinity during normal load using an rxhash fanout policy, while
dispersing unexpected traffic storms that hit a single cpu, such
as spoofed-source DoS flows. Rollover breaks affinity for flows
arriving at saturated sockets during those conditions.
The patch adds a fanout policy ROLLOVER that rotates between sockets,
filling each socket before moving to the next. It also adds a fanout
flag ROLLOVER. If passed along with any other fanout policy, the
primary policy is applied until the chosen socket is full. Then,
rollover selects another socket, to delay packet drop until the
entire system is saturated.
Probing sockets is not free. Selecting the last used socket, as
rollover does, is a greedy approach that maximizes chance of
success, at the cost of extreme load imbalance. In practice, with
sufficiently long queues to absorb bursts, sockets are drained in
parallel and load balance looks uniform in `top`.
To avoid contention, scales counters with number of sockets and
accesses them lockfree. Values are bounds checked to ensure
correctness.
Tested using an application with 9 threads pinned to CPUs, one socket
per thread and sufficient busywork per packet operation to limits each
thread to handling 32 Kpps. When sent 500 Kpps single UDP stream
packets, a FANOUT_CPU setup processes 32 Kpps in total without this
patch, 270 Kpps with the patch. Tested with read() and with a packet
ring (V1).
Also, passes psock_fanout.c unit test added to selftests.

The tx data offset of packet mmap tx ring used to be :
(TPACKET2_HDRLEN - sizeof(struct sockaddr_ll))
The problem is that, with SOCK_RAW socket, the payload (14 bytes after
the beginning of the user data) is misaligned.
This patch allows to let the user gives an offset for it's tx data if
he desires.
Set sock option PACKET_TX_HAS_OFF to 1, then specify in each frame of
your tx ring tp_net for SOCK_DGRAM, or tp_mac for SOCK_RAW.

Reported value is the same reported by the FANOUT getsockoption, but
unlike it, the absent fanout setup results in absent nlattr, rather
than in nlattr with zero value. This is done so, since zero fanout
report may mean both -- no fanout, and fanout with both id and type zero.

The diag module will need to access some private packet_sock data, so
move it to a header in advance. This file will be shared between the
af_packet.c and the diag.c
