Subject: [PATCH] net: fec: select queue depending on VLAN priority

Since the addition of the multi queue code with commit 59d0f7465644
("net: fec: init multi queue date structure") the queue selection
has been handelt by the default transmit queue selection
implementation which tries to evenly distribute the traffic across
all available queues. This selection presumes that the queues are
using an equal priority, however, the queues 1 and 2 are actually
of higher priority (the classification of the queues is enabled in
fec_enet_enable_ring).

This can lead to net scheduler warnings and continuous TX ring
dumps when exercising the system with iperf.

Use only queue 0 for all common traffic (no VLAN and P802.1p
priority 0 and 1) and route level 2-7 through queue 1 and 2.
