The functions print_rate() and sprint_rate() are useful for formatting rate-like values. The DCB tool would find these useful in the maxrate subtool. However, the current interface to these functions uses a global variable use_iec as a flag indicating whether 1024- or 1000-based powers should be used when formatting the rate value. For general use, a global variable is not a great way of passing arguments to a function. Besides, it is unlike most other printing functions in that it deals in buffers and ignores JSON. Therefore make the interface to print_rate() explicit by converting use_iec to an ordinary parameter. Since the interface changes anyway, convert it to follow the pattern of other json_print functions (except for the now-explicit use_iec parameter). Move to json_print.c. Add a wrapper to tc, so that all the call sites do not need to repeat the use_iec global variable argument, and convert all call sites. In q_cake.c, the conversion is not straightforward due to usage of a macro that is shared across numerous data types. Simply hand-roll the corresponding code, which seems better than making an extra helper for one call site. Drop sprint_rate() now that everybody just uses print_rate().

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm
arpd needs to have the berkeleydb development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdbX.X-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines. Often this is in the db-devel package.
2. make
The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
PAGESIZE=a4 , ie: a4 , letter ... (string)
PAGESPERPAGE=2 , ie: 1 , 2 ... (numeric)
and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
are in your path.
4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
if you have special requirements and need to point at different
kernel include files.
