Do we have a chance that RX and TX may want different ring size? If
yes, it might be even better to have per vq limit via find_vqs()?

Having a dedicated helper for a per device parameter usually means the
use cases are greatly limited. For example, this seems can only be
used when DRIVER_OK is not set?

And in patch 17 this function is called even if we only modify the RX
size, this is probably another call for a more flexible API as I
suggest like exporting vring allocation/deallocation helper and extend
find_vqs()?

Thanks
