Multiple receive queues are not needed on small systems,
so allow disabling them.

This is already disabled with !SMP, but it also makes
sense to disable on very small SMP systems (like
dual core SOC)

Such a pointless design still doesn't mean that you *have* to enable
SMP, does it?  How much would you save all over the kernel by simply
disabling SMP?

As for the system design: It seems to me that it would be more useful to
replace one of the CPU cores with some RAM...
