- Accept maximum number of queues as sysctl param so that any user space 
  application like libvirt can use this value to limit number of queues. Also
  Administrators can specify maximum number of queues by updating this sysctl
  entry.
This is the only part I don't like.

Just let whoever has privileges to configure the tun device shoot
themselves in the foot if they want to by configuring "too many"
queues.

If the virtual entity runs itself out of resources by doing something
stupid, it's purely their problem.
