This is code run by privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) users,
please do not spam the console with such a message.
My point was : Do not allow an unpriv user to set an arbitrary value.
netif_napi_add_weight() is used from kernel drivers, we network
maintainers usually object
if a driver attempts to use a big value, at code review time.
