You should use __get_cpu_var() instead of smp_processor_id() here, ie:

        else if ((txq = __get_cpu_var(vq_index)) == -1)

And AFAICT, no reason to initialize txq to 0 to start with.

So:

        int txq;

        if (skb_rx_queue_recorded(skb))
		txq = skb_get_rx_queue(skb);
        else {
                txq = __get_cpu_var(vq_index);
                if (txq == -1)
                        txq = 0;
        }

Now, just to confirm, I assume this can happen even if we use vq_index,
right, because of races with virtnet_set_channels?

  	while (unlikely(txq >= dev->real_num_tx_queues))
  		txq -= dev->real_num_tx_queues;


Thanks,
Rusty.
