Similar to the support for z/VM NICs, but we need to take extra care about the dedicated mcast queue: 1. netdev_pick_tx() is unaware of this limitation and might select the mcast txq. Catch this. 2. require at least _two_ TX queues - one for ucast, one for mcast. 3. when reducing the number of TX queues, there's a potential race where netdev_cap_txqueue() over-rules the selected txq index and falls back to index 0. This would place ucast traffic on the mcast queue, and result in TX errors. So for IQD, reject a reduction while the interface is running.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
