Parav Pandit d067111586 virtio-net: Reduce debug name field size to 16 bytes
virtio queue index can be maximum of 65535. 16 bytes are enough to store
the vq name with the existing string prefix.

With this change, send queue struct saves 24 bytes and receive
queue saves whole cache line worth 64 bytes per structure
due to saving in alignment bytes.

Pahole results before:

pahole -s drivers/net/virtio_net.o | \
    grep -e "send_queue" -e "receive_queue"
send_queue      1112    0
receive_queue   1280    1

Pahole results after:
pahole -s drivers/net/virtio_net.o | \
    grep -e "send_queue" -e "receive_queue"
send_queue      1088    0
receive_queue   1216    1

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
