I'm sorry, I made  a mistake. The real_num_rx_queues field, with the 3.10
kernel which is currently being used with the OpenWRT trunk branch, is only
defined when CONFIG_RPS flag is active. CONFIG_RPS is only active when
CONFIG_SMP is active.

This as changed (beyond 3.13 version) and the real_num_rx_queues field
depends now on CONFIG_SYSFS field.
