I wonder if we may miss some cases because we init the table to [0, 1]
and also only enable only 2 queues. Let's set it to 4 queues here to
potentially catch the driver resetting the table? 2 vs 4 are both tiny
values.
Alternatively we could use netlink to set the inidir table as
[1, 0] x N
rather than
[0, 1] x N
and..

here actually check
ksft_eq(indir, [1, 0] * (len / 2), "Folded table has wrong queues")

the queue_count=8 presumably only applies to netdevsim so it should go
