eth: bnxt: fix backward compatibility with older devices
Recent FW interface update bumped the size of struct hwrm_func_cfg_input above 128B which is the max some devices support. Probe on Stratus (BCM957452) with FW 20.8.3.11 fails with: bnxt_en ...: Unable to reserve tx rings bnxt_en ...: 2nd rings reservation failed. bnxt_en ...: Not enough rings available. Once probe is fixed other errors pop up: bnxt_en ...: Failed to set async event completion ring. This is because __hwrm_send() rejects requests larger than bp->hwrm_max_ext_req_len with -E2BIG. Since the driver doesn't actually access any of the new fields, yet, trim the length. It should be safe. Similar workaround exists for backing_store_cfg_input. Although that one mins() to a constant of 256, not 128 we'll effectively use here. Michael explains: "the backing store cfg command is supported by relatively newer firmware that will accept 256 bytes at least." To make debugging easier in the future add a warning for oversized requests.
