[c-nsp] 65xx QOS question

There should be no risk to moving to dscp queuing mode.  Just be
mindful of what to do with unknown DSCP values you may forget to
assign to a queue.

Currently only the 6708, 6716, and the VS-S720 10G ports support dscp
queing and I imagine that it is CoS by default to match the rest of
the blades available in the 6500.
