Subject: [PATCH v2] virtio-net: Zero max_tx_vq field for VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_HASH_CONFIG case

Kernel uses `struct virtio_net_ctrl_rss` to save command-specific-data
for both the VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_HASH_CONFIG and
VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_RSS_CONFIG commands.

According to the VirtIO standard, "Field reserved MUST contain zeroes.
It is defined to make the structure to match the layout of
virtio_net_rss_config structure, defined in 5.1.6.5.7.".

Yet for the VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_HASH_CONFIG command case, the `max_tx_vq`
field in struct virtio_net_ctrl_rss, which corresponds to the
`reserved` field in struct virtio_net_hash_config, is not zeroed,
thereby violating the VirtIO standard.

This patch solves this problem by zeroing this field in
virtnet_init_default_rss().
