macvlan devices are currently not multi-queue capable.

We can do that defining rtnl_link_ops method,
get_tx_queues(), called from rtnl_create_link()

This new method gets num_tx_queues/real_num_tx_queues
from lower device.

macvlan_get_tx_queues() is a copy of vlan_get_tx_queues().

Because macvlan_start_xmit() has to update netdev_queue
stats only (and not dev->stats), I chose to change
tx_errors/tx_aborted_errors accounting to tx_dropped,
since netdev_queue structure doesnt define tx_errors /
tx_aborted_errors.
