For high speed adapter like Mellanox CX-5 card, it can reach upto
100 Gbits per second bandwidth. Currently htb already supports 64bit rate
in tc utility. However police action rate and peakrate are still limited
to 32bit value (upto 32 Gbits per second). Taking advantage of the 2 new
attributes TCA_POLICE_RATE64 and TCA_POLICE_PEAKRATE64 from kernel,
tc can use them to break the 32bit limit, and still keep the backward
binary compatibility.

Using a 32 bit field to represent time in nanoseconds results in a
maximum value of about 4.3 seconds, which is well below many observed
delays in WiFi and LTE, and barely in the ballpark for a trip past the
Earth's moon, Luna.
Using 64 bit time fields in nanoseconds allows us to simulate
network diameters of several hundred light-years. However, only
conversions to and from ns, us, ms, and seconds are provided.
The iproute2 64 bit api uses signed values for time. Being able to
represent positive or negative time allows us to calculate +/- deltas
between, for example, the CLOCK_TAI and CLOCK_REALTIME clocks.
Time related utility functions in tc_util.c are moved to lib/utils.c.

Patch adds generic size table that is similiar to rate table, with
difference that size table stores link layer packet size.

Introducing the function that does the ATM cell alignment, and
modifying tc_calc_rtable() to use this based upon a linklayer
parameter.
Modified from original to use constants from atm.h and
fix all the usages of rtable in same patch.

Change tc_calc_rtable() to take a tc_ratespec struct as an
argument. (cell_log still needs to be passed on as a parameter,
because -1 indicate that the cell_log needs to be computed by the
function.).

Follow up patch to "Fix overflow in time2tick / tick2time." which switches
the remaining two helper functions from long to unsigned as well.
These functions are only used in "tc/q_hfsc.c" where both the passed argument
and the place the return value is stored are unsigned/u32 variables, so this
change should be safe to make but hasn't been tested as extensively as the
time2tick patch.

This reverts fd784ccaf6 commit.
Thanks Stephen, but actually I think the last patch (increase clock
resolution) shouldn't go in yet. I'm not done yet looking at all
the compatibility issues and it does change the range of valid
values for everything dealing with times. Most places I looked
at still accept reasonable ranges, but I would feel more comfortable
to make sure everything is fine first.

[IPROUTE]: Introduce tc_calc_xmitsize and use where appropriate
Add tc_calc_xmitsize() as complement to tc_calc_xmittime(), which calculates
the size that can be transmitted at a given rate during a given time.
Replace all expressions of the form "size = rate*tc_core_tick2usec(time))/1000000"
by tc_calc_xmitsize() calls.
