Subject: [PATCH 5.16 22/43] net/mlx5e: Dont treat small ceil values as unlimited in HTB offload

From: Maxim Mikityanskiy <maximmi@...dia.com>

commit 736dfe4e68b868829a1e89dfef4a44c1580d4478 upstream.

The hardware spec defines max_average_bw == 0 as "unlimited bandwidth".
max_average_bw is calculated as `ceil / BYTES_IN_MBIT`, which can become
0 when ceil is small, leading to an undesired effect of having no
bandwidth limit.

This commit fixes it by rounding up small values of ceil to 1 Mbit/s.
