Richard Alpe 535194a172 tipc: add peer remove functionality
This enables a user to remove an offline peer from the kernel data
structures. This could for example be useful when deliberately scaling
in peer nodes in a cloud environment.

This functionality was first merged in:
f9dec657e4 (Richard Alpe tipc: add peer remove functionality)

And later backed out (as the kernel counterpart was held up) in:
385caeb13b (Stephen Hemminger Revert "tipc: add peer remove functionality")

.SH DESCRIPTION
The Transparent Inter-Process Communication (TIPC) protocol offers total address
transparency between processes which allows applications in a clustered computer
environment to communicate quickly and reliably with each other, regardless of
their location within the cluster.
TIPC originated at the telecommunications manufacturer Ericsson. The first open
source version of TIPC was created in 2000 when Ericsson released its first
Linux version of TIPC. TIPC was introduced in the mainline Linux kernel in 2006
and is now widely used both within and outside of Ericsson.
