Interesting that qemu didn't fail.
[Sriram] void tun_set_real_num_tx_queues() does not return
the EINVAL return from netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() for
txq > dev->num_tx_queues (which would be the case if the
tap device were not created with IFF_MULTI_QUEUE). I think
it would be better to fix the code to disable the new
queue and fail tun_attach() in this scenario. If you
agree, I can go ahead and create a separate patch for that.

Absolutely.
[Sriram] OK, let me do that.

Pls note you'll need to switch to virtqueue_kick_prepare
to detect exits: virtqueue_kick doesn't let you know
whether there was an exit.
Also, it's best to make this a separate patch from the one
adding per-queue stats.
[Sriram] OK, I will cover only the per-queue statistics in
this patch. Also, I will address the indentation/data
structure name points that you mentioned in your earlier
email and send a new revision for this patch.
