Ixgbe supports at most 128 TX queues. But in none VT nor DCB mode
the queues 64 ~ 127 should not be used. Ixgbe doesn't do any check
about that. If a queue larger than 64 is used, the TX packets will
be dropped silently. It's hard to debug.
This check is added to forbid using queue number larger than 64
during device configuration, so the user can know the problem as
early as possible.
