Thanks for the explanation. I confess I still don't really understand
why other qdiscs besides the default ones are a problem, but the
default ones aren't, but I think your patch isn't making anything
worse so I have applied it.
So, if there is multiqueue support in the system, then mq becomes
one of the default qdiscs that could be found on an interface.
And this patch basically adds mq to the list.
Thanks for applying the patch

Thanks,
