[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 6/7] net/netvsc: do RSS across rx queue only

If number of tx queues is greater than the number of rx queues;
the driver ends up allocating more channels than rx queues.
The problem is that the RSS indirection table is programed such
that some packets will end up on a channel that would never be
polled. The fix is to limit the RSS indirection table by number
of rx queues not channels.
