FWIIW, I didn't find any other locations where this overflow might occur,
but I do agree that this approach makes sense.

I also notice that rvu_map_cgx_lmac_pf() has the following check near the
top. I think the lmac_per_cgx portion can be dropped, though that could be
a follow-up.

        if (cgx_cnt_max > 0xF || rvu->hw->lmac_per_cgx > 0xF)
                return -EINVAL;
