This patch is meant to allow for support of multiple hardware offload type for a single device. There is currently no bounds checking for the hw member of the mqprio_qopt structure. This results in us being able to pass values from 1 to 255 with all being treated the same. On retreiving the value it is returned as 1 for anything 1 or greater being set. With this change we are currently adding limited bounds checking by defining an enum and using those values to limit the reported hardware offloads.

These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
