[PATCH net-next 06/16] idpf: a use saner limit for default number of queues to allocate

[Alexander Lobakin]

Currently, the maximum number of queues available for one vport is 16.
This is hardcoded, but then the function calculating the optimal number
of queues takes min(16, num_online_cpus()).
On order to be able to allocate more queues, which will be then used for
XDP, stop hardcoding 16 and rely on what the device gives us. Instead of
num_online_cpus(), which is considered suboptimal since at least 2013,
use netif_get_num_default_rss_queues() to still have free queues in the
pool.
nr_cpu_ids number of Tx queues are needed only for lockless XDP sending,
the regular stack doesn't benefit from that anyhow.
On a 128-thread Xeon, this now gives me 32 regular Tx queues and leaves
224 free for XDP (128 of which will handle XDP_TX, .ndo_xdp_xmit(), and
XSk xmit when enabled).
