Implement HW offload support for SO_TXTIME through igb's Launchtime feature. This is done by extending igb_setup_tc() so it supports TC_SETUP_QDISC_ETF and configuring i210 so time based transmit arbitration is enabled. The FQTSS transmission mode added before is extended so strict priority (SP) queues wait for stream reservation (SR) ones. igb_config_tx_modes() is extended so it can support enabling/disabling Launchtime following the previous approach used for the credit-based shaper (CBS). As the previous flow, FQTSS transmission mode is enabled automatically by the driver once Launchtime (or CBS, as before) is enabled. Similarly, it's automatically disabled when the feature is disabled for the last queue that had it setup on. The driver just consumes the transmit times from the skbuffs directly, so no special handling is done in case an 'invalid' time is provided. We assume this has been handled by the ETF qdisc already.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
