ixgbe: change MAX_RXD/MAX_TXD based on adapter type

Set the length limit for the receive descriptor buffer and transmit
descriptor buffer based on the controller type. The values used are called
out in the controller datasheets as a 'Note:' in the RDLEN and TDLEN
register descriptions.

This allows the user to use ethtool to allocate larger descriptor buffers
in the case where data is received or transmitted too quickly for the
driver to keep up.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking changes from Paolo Abeni:
"Core:

- Refactor the forward memory allocation to better cope with memory

and IP multicast router.

- Network-side support for IO uring zero-copy send.

drivers, ixgbe: export vf statistics

This change retrieves network metrics for virtual functions from the
device and exports them via the iproute2 interface.

The code for retrieving the statistics from the device is taken from the
out-of-tree driver. The feature was introduced with version 2.0.75.7,
so the diff between this version and the previous version 2.0.72.4 was
used to identify required changes. The export via ethtool is omitted in
favor of using the standard ndo_get_vf_stats interface.

Per-VF statistics can now be printed, for instance, via

ip --statistics link show dev eth0
