[PATCH v2 net-next 5/7] net: dsa: sja1105: Make HOSTPRIO a kernel config

[Vladimir Oltean <olteanv@gmail.com>]

Unfortunately with this hardware, there is no way to transmit in-band
QoS hints with management frames (i.e. VLAN PCP is ignored). The traffic
class for these is fixed in the static config (which in turn requires a
reset to change).

With the new ability to add time gates for individual traffic classes,
there is a real danger that the user might unknowingly turn off the
traffic class for PTP, BPDUs, LLDP etc.

So we need to manage this situation the best we can. There isn't any
knob in Linux for this, and changing it at runtime probably isn't worth
it either. So just make the setting loud enough by promoting it to a
Kconfig, which the user can customize to their particular setup.
