From: Phil Oester <kernel@linuxace.com>

When packets come in from a device with >= 16 receive queues
headed out a bonding interface, syslog gets filled with this:

    kernel: bond0 selects TX queue 16, but real number of TX queues is 16

because queue_mapping is offset by 1.  Adjust return value
to account for the offset.

This is a revision of my earlier patch (which did not use the
skb_rx_queue_* helpers - thanks to Ben for the suggestion).
Andy submitted a similar patch which emits a pr_warning on
invalid queue selection, but I believe the log spew is
not useful.  We can revisit that question in the future,
but in the interim I believe fixing the core problem is
worthwhile.

(though more for being clean cherry pick, rather than clearness)
