Fix max_rate option in TC, check for proper quanta boundaries.
Check for minimum value provided and if it fits expected 50Mbps
quanta.
Without this patch, iavf could send settings for max_rate limiting
that would be accepted from by PF even the max_rate option is less
than expected 50Mbps quanta. It results in no rate limiting
on traffic as rate limiting will be floored to 0.
Example:
tc qdisc add dev $vf root mqprio num_tc 3 map 0 2 1 queues \
2@0 2@2 2@4 hw 1 mode channel shaper bw_rlimit \
max_rate 50Mbps 500Mbps 500Mbps
Should limit TC0 to circa 50 Mbps
tc qdisc add dev $vf root mqprio num_tc 3 map 0 2 1 queues \
2@0 2@2 2@4 hw 1 mode channel shaper bw_rlimit \
max_rate 0Mbps 100Kbit 500Mbps
Should return error

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.
