Subject: [PATCH] gianfar: Allocate the correct number of rx queues in 'gfar_of_init()'
Date:   Sun, 26 Jan 2020 10:20:28 +0100

We can get values for rx and tx queues from "fsl,num_rx_queues" and
"fsl,num_tx_queues". However, when 'alloc_etherdev_mq()' is called, the
value for "tx" is used for both.

Use 'alloc_etherdev_mqs()' instead.

WARNING: This patch is purely speculative!

I don't fully understand the code, and tx and rx queues seem to be
allocated by 'gfar_alloc_[rt]x_queues()' and handled with priv-> fields.
I don't know the relationship between queues provided by the core, and the
ones specificly handled in this driver.

'netif_set_real_num_rx_queues()' a few lines below is also spurious to me.
If "fsl,num_rx_queues" > "fsl,num_tx_queues" it will return an error and
things then look out of synch (i.e. 'priv->num_rx_queues' is set to a value
bigger than what is allocated by core, that is to say the one from
'priv->num_tx_queues')

If my assumptions are correct, I guess that the call to
'netif_set_real_num_rx_queues()' is useless


Sorry for the noise if I'm completly wrong.
In such a case, some explanation would be appreciated.
