ethtool: refactor checking max channels
Currently ethtool_set_channel calls separate functions to check whether the new channel number violates rss configuration or flow steering configuration. Very soon we need to check whether the new channel number violates memory provider configuration as well. To do all 3 checks cleanly, add a wrapper around ethtool_get_max_rxnfc_channel() and ethtool_get_max_rxfh_channel(), which does both checks. We can later extend this wrapper to add the memory provider check in one place. Note that in the current code, we put a descriptive genl error message when we run into issues. To preserve the error message, we pass the genl_info* to the common helper. The ioctl calls can pass NULL instead.
