This (and implementing the dummy mqprio offload callback) seem a bit
hackish: I am reading this is more a way to bypass mqprio parameter
validation (the priority to queue mapping) than anything else.

And I don't think that accepting any parameters without doing any
validation is really what you want.

Question:

$ tc qdisc replace dev $IFACE parent root handle 100 mqprio \
      num_tc 3 \
      map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
      queues 1@0 1@1 1@2 \
      hw 0

$ tc qdisc replace dev $IFACE handle 200 parent 100:1 cbs \
      idleslope 100000 sendslope -900000 hicredit 150 locredit -1362 \
      offload 1

Why doesn't something like this work for your hardware?
