I need to provide an iproute2 patch for IFLA_PORT_* and I wanted to hash out
the cmd line before I submit it.  Here's what I think would work based on
previous input from Arnd:

Usage:  ip port associate DEVICE [ vf NUM ] {PROFILE|VSI}
        ip port pre-associate DEVICE [ vf NUM ] VSI
        ip port pre-associate-rr DEVICE [ vf NUM ] VSI
        ip port dis-associate DEVICE [ vf NUM ]
        ip port show [ DEVICE [ vf NUM ] ]

        PROFILE := port-profile PORT-PROFILE
                   [ instance-uuid INSTANCE-UUID ]
                   [ host-uuid HOST-UUID ]

        VSI := vsi managerid MGR typeid VTID typeidversion VER
               [ instance-uuid INSTANCE-UUID ]

Comments?
