I independently decided to make a very similar code change with the
same semantics to netdev-dummy, so maybe there's something I don't
understand as well :-)

netdev-dummy is like a physical NIC, the wire is a stream object
(or the netdev-dummy/receive appctl, but only in one direction).

When a multi queue NIC receives a packet from the wire it should
put it in just one of its rings, right?
