af_iucv: add HiperSockets transport
The current transport mechanism for af_iucv is the z/VM offered communications facility IUCV. To provide equivalent support when running Linux in an LPAR, HiperSockets transport is added to the AF_IUCV address family. It requires explicit binding of an AF_IUCV socket to a HiperSockets device. A new packet_type ETH_P_AF_IUCV is announced. An af_iucv specific transport header is defined preceding the skb data. A small protocol is implemented for connecting and for flow control/congestion management.
