The portid is the netlink port id of the skb that created the queue.

Add test to ensure the portid cannot be 0 at create time, and
the check at enqueue time will always be false.

The instance_create function takes NETLINK_CB(skb).portid. IIRC,
netlink always sets that for us to non zero, so I think we would never
hit that error.

I'm trying to remember under what circunstances the queue portid can
be left unset, but I don't find any. Will check again this tomorrow
with fresh mind.
