IB/IPoIB: Fix legacy IPoIB due to wrong number of queues
The cited commit creates child PKEY interfaces over netlink will
multiple tx and rx queues, but some devices doesnt support more than 1
tx and 1 rx queues. This causes to a crash when traffic is sent over the
PKEY interface due to the parent having a single queue but the child
having multiple queues.
This patch fixes the number of queues to 1 for legacy IPoIB at the
earliest possible point in time.
