Subject: [net-next 15/15] i40e: Do not allow use more TC queue pairs than MSI-X vectors exist

From: Paweł Jabłoński <pawel.jablonski@...el.com>

This patch suppresses the message about invalid TC mapping and wrong
selected TX queue. The root cause of this bug was setting too many
TC queue pairs on huge multiprocessor machines. When quantity of the
TC queue pairs is exceeding MSI-X vectors count then TX queue number
can be selected beyond actual TX queues amount.
