Just want to make a couple points, but these concerns shouldn't hold
up acceptance since this is still better than what we had before, and
I don't see an obvious solution to either problem.
1, This will break the irq affinity hints.
2, We don't control or know which CPUs share the h/w queues when you assign
the queue's vector, so we could create sub-optimal sharing.
