Currently if a user sets an odd [tx|rx]-usecs value through ethtool, the request is denied because the hardware is set to have an ITR granularity of 2us. This caused poor customer experience. Fix this by aligning to a register allowed value, which results in rounding down. Also, print a once per ring container type message to be clear about our intentions. Also, change the ITR_TO_REG define to be the bitwise and of the ITR setting and the ICE_ITR_MASK. This makes the purpose of ITR_TO_REG more obvious.

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.
