Make the broadcast cutoff configurable through netlink. Note that macvlan is weird because there is no central device for us to configure (the lowerdev could be anything). So all the options are duplicated over what could be thousands of child devices. IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN took the approach of taking the maximum of all child device settings. This is unnecessary as we could simply store the option in the port device and take the last child device that gets updated as the value to use.

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.
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.
