Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] vlan: multiqueue vlan devices

vlan devices are currently not multi-queue capable.

We can do that with a new rtnl_link_ops method,
get_tx_queues(), called from rtnl_create_link()

This new method gets num_tx_queues/real_num_tx_queues
from real device.

register_vlan_device() is also handled.
