Okay, that is fine, it is a bit obtuse because of how distant
rxe_qp_chk_cap() is from this function, lets just add a comment

If the sizes are increased then the driver is supposed to return the
actual maximums.

It is easy, I will fix it.

Also, your patches don't apply cleanly. You need to send patches
against the rdma for-next tree

And subjects should start with some 'RDMA/rxe: ' tag

I fixed it all and applied to for-next
