Hello David,

I faced the problem described in commit 7e3f5c8:
ixgbe: fix bounds checking in ixgbe_setup_tc for 82598

This patch resolves an issue where users were not able to dynamically
set number of queues for 82598 via ethtool -L


I backported it for my v4.1.x build but I was wondering if this could be
a candidate for a backport in stable tree at least for v4.1.x.

Thanks,
