virtio queue index can be maximum of 65535. 16 bytes are enough to store
the vq name with the existing string prefix.
With this change, send queue struct saves 24 bytes and receive
queue saves whole cache line worth 64 bytes per structure
due to saving in alignment bytes.
Pahole results before:
pahole -s drivers/net/virtio_net.o | \
grep -e "send_queue" -e "receive_queue"
send_queue 1112 0
receive_queue 1280 1
Pahole results after:
pahole -s drivers/net/virtio_net.o | \
grep -e "send_queue" -e "receive_queue"
send_queue 1088 0
receive_queue 1216 1
