patch 'net/gve: restrict max ring size in GQ QPL to 2K' has been queued to stable release 24.11.7

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/15/26. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/875358a1c8de4466da96647ecc8611e69a4c3ea2

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/gve: restrict max ring size in GQ QPL to 2K

[ upstream commit 3040e4acff643ee86ac0a504516cfe15ed866823 ]

The GQ QPL queue format has a maximum supported ring size of 2k.
However, it is possible in some cases for the device to pass a larger
ring size as the max ring size. Restrict the ring size in the driver to
ensure that rings with invalid queue depths are not created.

Fixes: cde01d164f8f ("net/gve: support modifying ring size in GQ format")
