Subject: [PATCH net, 1/2] hv_netvsc: Remove "unlikely" from netvsc_select_queue

When using vf_ops->ndo_select_queue, the number of queues of VF is
usually bigger than the synthetic NIC. This condition may happen
often.
Remove "unlikely" from the comparison of ndev->real_num_tx_queues.

Fixes: b3bf5666a510 ("hv_netvsc: defer queue selection to VF")
