Do we really need these tricks?
Can't we call macvtap_disable_queue and then only handle disable queues
here?

I don't really understand what is this comment trying to say.
What is protected? What is safe? safe time as what?

Better two BUG_ON checks - they are both 0 right?
And no need for != 0.

What's this doing? We know it's 0 ...

Can be just return -EINVAL, and you won't need to initialize
above.

Bad name, e.g. queue_list would be better.

So numvtaps is number of entries in the taps array.
But to get items on list, you must add numdisabled and
numvtaps, that's confusing.
Instead of numdisabled, let's add a counter for
number of entries in the tap_link list.

How about numqueues?
