If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet [ Upstream commit 0e1d6eca5113858ed2caea61a5adc03c595f6096 ] We have an impressive number of syzkaller bugs that are linked to the fact that syzbot was able to create a networking device with millions of TX (or RX) queues. Let's limit the number of RX/TX queues to 4096, this really should cover all known cases. A separate patch will add various cond_resched() in the loops handling sysfs entries at device creation and dismantle.
