What device are you using that is trying to allocate so many Tx queues?
Assuming this is coming from the VPN device coming online; is SELinux
in enforcing mode?  There have been a number of changes in the tun
driver recently around the multiqueue area with SELinux, just a theory
at this point.  I can keep digging.
