veth: try harder when allocating queue memory
[ Upstream commit 1ce7d306ea63f3e379557c79abd88052e0483813 ] struct veth_rq is pretty large, 832B total without debug options enabled. Since commit under Fixes we try to pre-allocate enough queues for every possible CPU. Miao Wang reports that this may lead to order-5 allocations which will fail in production. Let the allocation fallback to vmalloc() and try harder. These are the same flags we pass to netdev queue allocation.
