Subject: [net-next rfc 1/3] net: avoid high order memory allocation for queues by using flex array

Currently, we use kcalloc to allocate rx/tx queues for a net device which could
be easily lead to a high order memory allocation request when initializing a
multiqueue net device. We can simply avoid this by switching to use flex array
which always allocate at order zero.
