Comparing Mutiqueue Support Linux vs FreeBSD

[Jack Vogel]

ethtool is GPL so I wouldn't expect it to show up around here :)

Implementing something like it for FreeBSD would be cool however, sometimes
sysctl just
seems clunky although its usually how i cope with driver things that might
be changed via
ethtool in Linux. Having to completely rebuild a kernel for controlling RSS
seems horribly
clunky on the other hand.
