Currently the max number of channels is limited to 64, which is half of the indirection table size to allow some flexibility. But on servers with more than 64 cores, users may want to utilize more queues. This patch increases the advertised max number of channels to 128 by changing the ratio between channels and indirection table slots to 1:1. At the same time, the driver still enable no more than 64 channels at loading. Users can change it by ethtool afterwards.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
