As suggested by Eric Dumazet, allow user to select mode which chooses
TX port randomly. Functionality should be more of less similar to
round-robin mode with even lower overhead.

menuconfig NET_TEAM
tristate "Ethernet team driver support"
---help---
This allows one to create virtual interfaces that teams together
multiple ethernet devices.
Team devices can be added using the "ip" command from the
iproute2 package:
"ip link add link [ address MAC ] [ NAME ] type team"
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called team.

config NET_TEAM_MODE_BROADCAST
tristate "Broadcast mode support"
depends on NET_TEAM
---help---
Basic mode where packets are transmitted always by all suitable ports.
All added ports are setup to have team's device address.
To compile this team mode as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called team_mode_broadcast.
config NET_TEAM_MODE_ROUNDROBIN
tristate "Round-robin mode support"
depends on NET_TEAM
---help---
Basic mode where port used for transmitting packets is selected in
round-robin fashion using packet counter.
All added ports are setup to have team's device address.
To compile this team mode as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called team_mode_roundrobin.

config NET_TEAM_MODE_ACTIVEBACKUP
tristate "Active-backup mode support"
depends on NET_TEAM
---help---
Only one port is active at a time and the rest of ports are used
for backup.
Mac addresses of ports are not modified. Userspace is responsible
to do so.
To compile this team mode as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called team_mode_activebackup.
config NET_TEAM_MODE_LOADBALANCE
tristate "Load-balance mode support"
depends on NET_TEAM
---help---
This mode provides load balancing functionality. Tx port selection
is done using BPF function set up from userspace (bpf_hash_func
option)
To compile this team mode as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called team_mode_loadbalance.
