Subject: [PATCH 3.16 168/366] xen-netfront: Remove the meaningless code

3.16.61-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Li, Liang Z" <liang.z.li@intel.com>

commit 905726c1c5a3ca620ba7d73c78eddfb91de5ce28 upstream.

The function netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() will return -EINVAL if
the second parameter < 1, so call this function with the second
parameter set to 0 is meaningless.
