[net-next PATCH 3/3] veth: don't assign a qdisc to veth

[Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>]

From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com>

The veth driver is a virtual device, and should not have assigned
the default qdisc.  Verified (ndo_start_xmit) veth_xmit can only
return NETDEV_TX_OK, thus this should be safe to bypass qdisc.

Not assigning a qdisc is subtly done by setting tx_queue_len to zero.
