A following patch introduces qevents, points in qdisc algorithm where
packet can be processed by user-defined filters. Should this processing
lead to a situation where a new packet is to be enqueued on the same port,
holding the root lock would lead to deadlocks. To solve the issue, qevent
handler needs to unlock and relock the root lock when necessary.
To that end, add the root lock argument to the qdisc op enqueue, and
propagate throughout.

Skbprio (SKB Priority Queue) is a queueing discipline that prioritizes packets
according to their skb->priority field. Under congestion, already-enqueued lower
priority packets will be dropped to make space available for higher priority
packets. Skbprio was conceived as a solution for denial-of-service defenses that
need to route packets with different priorities as a means to overcome DoS
attacks.
v5
*Do not reference qdisc_dev(sch)->tx_queue_len for setting limit. Instead set
default sch->limit to 64.
v4
*Drop Documentation/networking/sch_skbprio.txt doc file to move it to tc man
page for Skbprio, in iproute2.
v3
*Drop max_limit parameter in struct skbprio_sched_data and instead use
sch->limit.
*Reference qdisc_dev(sch)->tx_queue_len only once, during initialisation for
qdisc (previously being referenced every time qdisc changes).
*Move qdisc's detailed description from in-code to Documentation/networking.
*When qdisc is saturated, enqueue incoming packet first before dequeueing
lowest priority packet in queue - improves usage of call stack registers.
*Introduce and use overlimit stat to keep track of number of dropped packets.
v2
*Use skb->priority field rather than DS field. Rename queueing discipline as
SKB Priority Queue (previously Gatekeeper Priority Queue).
*Queueing discipline is made classful to expose Skbprio's internal priority
queues.
