Dropwatch is a utility that monitors dropped frames by having userspace
record them over the dropwatch protocol over a file. This augument
allows live monitoring of dropped frames using tools like tcpdump.

With this feature, dropwatch allows two additional commands (start and
stop interface) which allows the assignment of a net_device to the
dropwatch protocol. When assinged, dropwatch will clone dropped frames,
and receive them on the assigned interface, allowing tools like tcpdump
to monitor for them.

With this feature, create a dummy ethernet interface (ip link add dev
dummy0 type dummy), assign it to the dropwatch kernel subsystem, by using
these new commands, and then monitor dropped frames in real time by
running tcpdump -i dummy0.
