LGTM, but we need a better place for this function. netdevice.h is
included directly by 1.5k files, and indirectly by probably another 5k.
It's not a great place to put random helpers with 2 callers. 
Maybe net/netdev_rx_queue.h and net/core/netdev_rx_queue.c?
I don't think it needs to be a static inline either.
