According to the MRQE register description in 82599 and x540 specs 2 
(the value of IXGBEVF_MAX_RSS_QUEUES) is the minimal allowed number of 
queues in a single pool thus it's a minimal number of VF queues - not 
the maximal (see more comments on this below).

Emil,
Here u ignore the IXGBE_VF_RX_QUEUES value returned the PF (stored in 
the hw->mac.max_rx_queues). This will accidentally work if PF is driven 
by a current ixgbe Linux driver but what would happen if HV is not a 
Linux box? What if HV decides to configure the PSRTYPE[x].RQPL to 0 and 
decide that VF should be configured with a single queue? I maybe miss 
something here but the above line seems bogus. Please, comment.

thanks,
vlad
