The code is using this "default" even if the amount of queue pairs it
wants was specified during initialization. This basically limits any
device to use 1 pair when starting up.


Yes, currently the virtio-net driver would use 1 txq/txq by default since multiqueue may not outperform in all kinds of workload. So it's better to keep it as default and let user enable multiqueue by ethtool -L.
