Very cool, thanks! Reviewed-by: Gal Pressman <gal@nvidia.com>

Since commit 24ac7e544081 ("ethtool: use the rss context XArray in ring deactivation safety-check") core will prevent queues from being disabled while being used by additional RSS contexts. The safety check is no longer necessary, and core will do a more accurate job of only rejecting changes which can actually break things.
