Andrea Claudi e44786b269 tc: htb: improve burst error messages
When a wrong value is provided for "burst" or "cburst" parameters, the
resulting error message is unclear and can be misleading:

$ tc class add dev dummy0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 100KBps burst errtrigger
Illegal "buffer"

The message claims an illegal "buffer" is provided, but neither the
inline help nor the man page list "buffer" among the htb parameters, and
the only way to know that "burst", "maxburst" and "buffer" are synonyms
is to look into tc/q_htb.c.

This commit tries to improve this simply changing the error string to
the parameter name provided in the user-given command, clearly pointing
out where the wrong value is.

$ tc class add dev dummy0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 100KBps burst errtrigger
Illegal "burst"

$ tc class add dev dummy0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 100Kbps maxburst errtrigger
Illegal "maxburst"

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. include/uapi

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.
