Once you setup your RX queue, you can't mix them. It would be good to make vector RX method to work with arbitrary number of packets, but I don't think your method would work properly. In meanwhile, wonder can this problem be handled on the bonding device level? Something like prevent vector RX be enabled at setup stage, or something?
