Use "id" instead?

Ok; I suppose number implies "the number of queues", not "which queue is
this?"

Any reason to swtich back to array inside structure? This array is
really large.


It was moved to a separate vmalloc because it was large, but now the
array of queues is allocated through vmalloc anyway. I preferred to
bring this back into the structure rather than have more allocations to
track and remember to free at all relevant points. If there is any
significant reason to split this out I'm happy to do so...

Ok.

Actually why do you special-case num_queues == 1? If it is an
optimazation for old frontend then please add some comment.


That was the intention. I'll add a comment to that effect.

You don't need both, do you? They should be strictly synchronized.


Hmm... true. I'll change to just if (vif->num_queues < 1), since it
states the intent more clearly than the pointer check.

I thought I'd caught all of those; must have missed one!
