No, I am not referring to any discrepancy in naming the macro.
If you check your code

- hw->rss_ind_tbl_size = NIC_MAX_RSS_IDR_TBL_SIZE;
+ hw->rss_ind_tbl_size = veb_enabled ? NIC_TNS_RSS_IDR_TBL_SIZE :
+     NIC_MAX_RSS_IDR_TBL_SIZE;

You are setting RSS table size to 5, i.e RSS hash bits will be set to 2.
Hence only 4 queues (not even 5 as i mentioned earlier). Please check
'nicvf_rss_init' you will understand what i am saying.
Have you tested and observed pkts in all 8 queues ?
