Of course it has no impact on a single TCP stream test, since TCP
stream can only use one queue. If anything it should help.
The testing here is not very convincing. At least install a realistic
qdisc (fq/fq_codel/cake) and run multi-stream test with multiple cores?
What's the CPU idle delta in such a test?

The reason for this change is not coming thru from the submission.
Ovidiu's patch makes much more intuitive sense. I'll apply that,
please rebase.
