net: enetc: use alloc_etherdev_mqs() to create netdev for VF driver
The VF driver uses alloc_etherdev_mq() with ENETC_MAX_NUM_TXQS as the queue count, which forces the TX and RX queue counts to be equal and uses a compile-time constant rather than the actual hardware capability. After enetc_get_si_caps() is called, si->num_tx_rings and si->num_rx_rings reflect the actual number of rings assigned to the VF by the PF. For the ENETC VF on LS1028A and the upcoming i.MX95/94, their SoCs have no more than 6 CPUs, and the number of TX/RX rings allocated to the VF is less than 8. Therefore, switch to alloc_etherdev_mqs() so that the TX and RX queue counts are set independently, each capped at ENETC_MAX_NUM_TXQS, based on the actual number of rings assigned to the VF by the PF. Note that if future SoCs have more than 6 CPUs and more than 6 RX rings allocated to VFs, the size of the int_vector array in struct enetc_ndev_priv will need to be modified. Similarly, if more than 8 TX rings are allocated to each int_vector, ENETC_MAX_NUM_TXQS will also need to be modified.
