i40e: fix confusing dmesg info for ethtool -L option
Ethtool -L option with the combined parameter is for changing the number of multi-purpose channels of the specified network device. The pre-set maximum for the combined channels is cpu dependent. Currently, for an i40e device, when the user sets a value between 64 and the maximum that the cpu can support for the combined parameter, the i40e driver displays the confusing info in dmesg to only show 64 as the RSS count regardless of what the accepted user input is as long as it is larger than 64. This patch fixes the message in the i40e driver when the user uses ethtool -L to change the number of the combined channels to consistently display the user requested value if it is valid and accepted by ethtool.
