I think, we can go with first two patches now and merge the last one when
the 18.11.2 ready. Second patch should not make any harm as all modern
drivers has F_MQ support and we'll not waste much time on polling disabled
queues. Anyway, polling of disabled queues better than guest-controllable
reconfigurations. We also need to think about backporting the second patch.
