Subject: [PATCH 4.2 30/30] net/mlx4_core: Capping number of requested MSIXs to MAX_MSIX

4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Carol L Soto <clsoto@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 9293267a3e2a7a2555d8ddc8f9301525e5b03b1b ]

We currently manage IRQs in pool_bm which is a bit field
of MAX_MSIX bits. Thus, allocating more than MAX_MSIX
interrupts can't be managed in pool_bm.
Fixing this by capping number of requested MSIXs to
MAX_MSIX.
