Hm... in fact these two parameters should be removed. They are redundant in
this and the mvneta driver. The Rx queue number should be fixed and none of
the drivers support more than 1.

The Tx queue number should be set to the hardware supported one, there's no
reason to use something different.

So, unless someone objects, we'll remove them in v4.

Thanks for the feedback,
