[ipxe-devel] [PATCH 1/4] [virtio] Cap queue size to MAX_QUEUE_NUM

[Ladi Prosek]

vpm_find_vqs incorrectly accepted the host provided queue size with no
regard to iPXE's internal limitations. Virtio 1.0 makes it possible for
the driver to override the queue size to reduce memory requirements and
iPXE is a great use case for this feature.

Also removing the extra vq->vring.num assignment which is already
handled in vring_init.
