This patch doesn't limit the number of queues. It is limiting the
number of interrupts. The two are not directly related as we can
support multiple queues per interrupt.
Also this change assumes we are only using receive side scaling. We
have other features such as DCB, FCoE, and Flow Director which require
additional queues.
Yet, it would be good if ixgbe doesnt allocate 36 queues on a 4 cpu
machine.
"tc -s class show dev eth0" output is full of not used classes.
