[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 7/7] mlx4: make sure that number of RX queues is a power of 2

[Adrien Mazarguil]

From: Robin Jarry <robin.ja...@6wind.com>

In the documentation it is specified that the hardware only supports a
number of RX queues if it is a power of 2.

Since ibv_exp_create_qp may not return an error when the number of
queues is unsupported by hardware, sanitize the value in dev_configure.
