veth: try harder when allocating queue memory

[ Upstream commit 1ce7d306ea63f3e379557c79abd88052e0483813 ]

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.
