Yeah, I think this makes the most sense so all/any vendor drivers 
implementing tcp-data-split-thresh don't have to worry about checking 
against their max in their set_ringparam callback, they just have to set 
their max in the get_ringparam callback.

You mentioned ETHTOOL_A_RINGS_RX_MAX, which there are already examples 
of this in the kernel and other similar ring parameter max values.
