[531276.899648] netdev: Unable to allocate 1024 tx queues


This is when trying to start a VPN using some old openvpn binary so MQ
is not set.

So
1. I think we should limit allocation of MQ to when MQ flag is set in SETIFF.
2. order 7 allocation is 2^^7 pages - about half a megabyte of contigious
   memory. This is quite likely to fail.
   Let's start with a small limit on number of queues, like 8?
   Then we know it will succeed.
   Longer term we might want to solve it differently.
