[PATCH 4.1 098/127] xen-netfront: respect user provided max_queues

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 32a844056fd43dda647e1c3c6b9983bdfa04d17d ]

Originally that parameter was always reset to num_online_cpus during
module initialisation, which renders it useless.

The fix is to only set max_queues to num_online_cpus when user has not
provided a value.
