This patch adds ip link option to change the privilege level for the specified VF.

Example usage:-

If the current Privilege of the VF is 0x86:

To add VLAN privilege to the VF,
   ip link set ethX vf 0 privilege 0xC6

To add VLAN & MAC privilege to the VF,
   ip link set ethX vf 0 privilege 0xE6

To give just default privileges to the VF
   ip link set ethX vf 0 privilege 0x1

o/p of the *new* ip link show command:
ip link show eth2
9: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:00:c9:ef:7c:9a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    vf 0 MAC 00:00:c9:f6:b0:4d, privilege 0x1
