[Cake] cake at 3gbit

my old veth code - which simulates 5 hops - can only achieve about
4gbit on the hardware I have with netem on a 20ms delay. There are
undoubtably other bottlenecks elsewhere in the system in this
configuration. :)

I DO have real 10GigE hardware now, but would love to see someone
trying cake at 40GigE+ in the real world now that it allows
superpackets and the api allows for more than 40Gbit to be specified.

regretably, hit a bug, we need to wait for toke's v18 to come out.

At 3gbit, with netem inserting 10ms delay in each direction, it's hard
to complain.
