575	  HW-offload related.

584	  This provides an automated failover mechanism via APIs to create
585	  and destroy a failover master netdev and manages a primary and
586	  standby slave netdevs that get registered via the generic failover
587	  infrastructure. This can be used by paravirtual drivers to enable
588	  an alternate low latency datapath. It also enables live migration of
589	  a VM with direct attached VF by failing over to the paravirtual
590	  datapath when the VF is unplugged.
