net: allocate tx queues in register_netdevice
This patch introduces netif_alloc_netdev_queues which is called from register_device instead of alloc_netdev_mq. This makes TX queue allocation symmetric with RX allocation. Also, queue locks allocation is done in netdev_init_one_queue. Change set_real_num_tx_queues to fail if requested number < 1 or greater than number of allocated queues.
