[Devel] [PATCH 2/3] Add a veth_get_peer() and veth_set_peer() functions

[Dan Smith]

This is needed for C/R.  For checkpoint, we need to be able to follow
the link from one veth device to its peer.  For restart, we need to be
able to link two veth devices we've restored to re-establish their
relationship.
