[ Upstream commit 0aa4febb42 ]
Under heavy traffic load, when changing number of channels via
ethtool (ethtool -L) which will cause interface to be reloaded,
it was observed that some packets gets transmitted on old TX
channel/queue id which doesn't really exist after the channel
configuration leads to system crash.
Add a safeguard in the driver by validating queue id through
ndo_select_queue() which is called before the ndo_start_xmit().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
