veth: try harder when allocating queue memory
struct veth_rq is pretty large, 832B total without debug
options enabled. Since commit under Fixes we try to pre-allocate
enough queues for every possible CPU. Miao Wang reports that
this may lead to order-5 allocations which will fail in production.
Let the allocation fallback to vmalloc() and try harder.
These are the same flags we pass to netdev queue allocation.
