I think that must be wrong.  The record_rx_queue sets it to queue_map + 1,
but the hard-start-xmit method (in ixgbe/ixgbe_main.c, at least), takes the
skb->queue_map and uses it as an index with no subtraction.

This causes watchdog timeouts because we are calling txq_trans_update in pktgen on
queue 0, for instance, but sending pkts on queue 1.  If queue 1 is ever
busy when the WD fires, link is reset.

Thanks,
Ben
