Subject: [PATCH net V2 1/6] net/mlx5: Verify module parameters

From: Kamal Heib <kamalh@...lanox.com>

Verify the mlx5_core module parameters by making sure that they are in
the expected range and if they aren't restore them to their default
values.

Fixes: 9603b61de1ee ('mlx5: Move pci device handling from mlx5_ib to mlx5_core')
