If user requested multiqueue networking, beside multiple /dev/tap and /dev/vhost-net openings, we forgot to pass mq=on onto the -device virtio-net-pci command line. This is advised at:

usually we put a blank line between variable declarations and code.

Same comment here. ACK with those two blank lines added.
