Also crashing on device nack of command is also not nice.
In this case it seems we can just switch to
single-queue mode which should always be safe.

Not sure it's safe. It depends on the reason why this call fails. If we
left a state that the driver only use single queue but the device use
multi queues, we may still lost the network.
