Is there some explanation for why the below patch does what the subject
line claims for the uninitiated?

I don't know why increasing the number of queues from 2 to 3 here is
correct in the general case, OR why it would "add ctrl vq support".
(Or what it has to do with fuzzing, in general.)

[Only responding because this landed in tests/libqos, which I do try to
keep an eye on, but this patch is opaque to me. --js]
