Hi,

I am wondering if there is any work being done on implementing
Bandwidth Allocation in the igb driver. By which I mean
using the VMBACS, VMBAMMW, VMBASEL and VMBAC registers
as per section 4.5.11.1.5 "Allocation of Tx Bandwidth to VM"
in the "Intel 82576 Gigabit Ethernet Controller Datasheet" v2p41.
