Subject: [net-next-2.6 01/24] igb: warn if max_vfs limit is exceeded

From: Stefan Assmann <sassmann@...hat.com>

Currently there's no warning printed when max_vfs > 7 is specified with
igb and the maximum of 7 is silently enforced. This patch prints a
warning and informs the user of the actions taken.
