The 'inherit/STRING' or 'inherit/00..ff' syntax indicates that the
TOS field of tunneled packets should be copied from the original IP
header, but for non-IP packets the value STRING or 00..ff should be
used instead. (This syntax is already used by 'ip tunnel show'.)
Also clarify the man page and the command usage text (particularly
that the TOS is not specified as a decimal number).

Add command that go between network namespace names and process
identifiers. The code builds and runs agains older kernels but
only works on Linux 3.8+ kernels where I have fixed stat to work
properly.

$ ip link add link ib0.1 name ib0.1 type ipoib mode connected
$ ip --details link show dev ib0.1

- rename section UNITS to PARAMETERS.
- break section PARAMETERS down to four subsections to cover the
common used parameter types(RATES, TIMES, SIZES, VALUES).
- add some explaination for IEC units in RATES.
- point out the max value we can set for RATES, TIMES and SIZES.

Since the get_rate() code incorrectly interpreted bare number, the
behavior is not the same as man page and comment described.
We need to change the man page and comment for compatible with the
existing usage by scripts.
This makes 2 changes:
1: Add fq_codel to SEE ALSO section in tc manpage.
2: Reorder the SEE ALSO section to make the order alphabetical
(suggested by Jan Ceuleers ).

*********************
Space at end of line removed
General considerations
a) Manuals should usually only be left justified. Use ".ad l"
as the first regular command.
b) Each sentence should begin on a new line. The conventions
about the amount of space between sentences are different. This
also makes a check on the number of space characters between
words easier.
c) Separate numbers from units with a (no-break) space. A
no-break space can be code 0xA0, "\ " (\<space>), or "\~"
(groff).
d) Use macros "TS/TE" for tables with more than two columns.
Then use
'\" t
as the first line in the source to tell "man" to use the "tbl"
preprocessor.
e) Protect last period (full stop) in abbreviations with "\&",
if it is or might be (through new formatting of source) at the
end of line, if it is also not an end of sentence.

Reported by Ivan Vilata i Balaguer <ivan@selidor.net>
found that the description of the `ip link add` command in the manpage
is outdated regarding the compulsory `link DEVICE` option.
For instance, `ip link help` says:
Usage: ip link add [link DEV] [ name ] NAME
...
But the manpage still says:
ip link add link DEVICE [ name ] NAME
(Trying to provide a `link` option e.g. under an LXC container can frustrate
the creation of dummy devices which don't need an actual device.)
The syntax of the "ip link help" output was fixed in commit
"iproute2: Fix usage and man page for 'ip link'" (a22e92951d).
This updates the manpage to mark "link DEVICE" as an optional
argument there as well.

The kernel supports a link mode attribute (which can be dormant or default).
This attribute is used to control how the link watch engine
handles operstate transistion.
This adds a new parameter to ip link command to allow setting and
displaying the value.
