Log:
  This commit enables partial operation of dummynet with kernels
  compiled with "options VIMAGE".
  As it is now, there is still a single instance of the pipes,
  and it is only usable from vnet0 (the main instance).
  Trying to use a pipe from a different vimage does not crash
  the system as it did before, but the traffic coming out from
  the pipe goes to the wrong place, and i still need to
  figure out where.

  Support for per-vimage pipes is almost there (just a matter of
  uncommenting the VNET_* definitions for dn_cfg, plus putting into
  the structure the remaining static variables), however i need
  first to figure out how init/uninit work, and also to understand
  where packets are ending up on exit from a pipe.

  In summary: vimage support for dummynet is not complete yet,
  but we are getting there.
