The driver only uses TX ring 0 and RX ring 0, so allocating a netdev
with GENET_MAX_MQ_CNT + 1 = 5 TX and 5 RX slots leaves four of each
unused. Switch to alloc_etherdev() which allocates exactly one queue
of each kind.
No functional change: netif_set_real_num_{tx,rx}_queues() already
clamps the visible queue count to 1.
