The existing code has a bug here. After rndis_filter_device_add(),
the number of queues granted by the host may change:
net_device->num_chn = 1 +
init_packet->msg.v5_msg.subchn_comp.num_subchannels;
So we should call rndis_filter_device_add() first, then
assign net_device->num_chn to "real number tx queues".
