Subject[stable] ixgbe: Fix return of invalid txq
Please consider commit fdd3d631cddad20ad9d3e1eb7dbf26825a8a121f for 
inclusion in 2.6.32.y (it is already in 2.6.33.y)

Here is the commit message, it fixes a panic on machines with a larger
number of cpus than ixgbe has tx queues (64).

ixgbe: Fix return of invalid txq

a developer had complained of getting lots of warnings:

"eth16 selects TX queue 98, but real number of TX queues is 64"

http://www.mail-archive.com/e1000-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg02200.html

As there was no follow up on that bug, I am submitting this
patch assuming that the other return points will not return
invalid txq's, and also that this fixes the bug (not tested).
