Subject: [PATCH] net: Allocate RX and TX queues in alloc_netdev_mq

Both TX and RX queue allocations in the netdev structure had been moved
to register_device with the idea that the number of queues could be
changed between device allocation and registration.  It was determined
that changing the num_queues after the call to alloc_netdev_mq was not
a good idea, so that was abandoned.  Also, some drivers call
netif_queue_start without registering device, which causes panic
when dev->_tx queue structure is accessed.  This patch moves queue
allocations back to alloc_netdev_mq to fix these issues.
