>
> Currently, the maximum value of rx/tx queueus are kept by EAL. But,
> the value are used like below different meanings in vhost PMD.
> - The maximum value of current enabled queues.
> - The maximum value of current supported queues.
>
> This wrong double meaning will cause an issue like below steps.
>
> * Invoke application with below option.
> --vdev 'eth_vhost0,iface=<socket path>,queues=4'
> * Configure queues like below.
> rte_eth_dev_configure(portid, 2, 2, ...);
> * Configure queues again like below.
> rte_eth_dev_configure(portid, 4, 4, ...);
>
> The second rte_eth_dev_configure() will be failed because both
> the maximum value of current enabled queues and supported queues
> will be '2' after calling first rte_eth_dev_configure().
>
> To fix the issue, the patch prepare one more variable to keep the
> number of maximum supported queues in vhost PMD.
