2016-03-14	net: add a hardware buffer management helper API	Gregory CLEMENT	1	-0/+87
	This basic implementation allows to share code between driver using hardware buffer management. As the code is hardware agnostic, there is few helpers, most of the optimization brought by the an HW BM has to be done at driver level.
