Looking at r8169_init_napi(), later down the patch, it only calls 
netif_napi_add() for min(tp->irq_nvecs, R8169_MAX_QUEUES) vectors, but 
this loop iterates all tp->irq_nvecs. Can this be an issue? Looks like 
it will be because entries entries >= R8169_MAX_QUEUES are zeroed but 
rtl8169_interrupt_msix() would set dev to NULL.
