we set max_prioidx to the first zero bit index of prioidx_map in
function get_prioidx.

So when we delete the low index netprio cgroup and adding a new
netprio cgroup again,the max_prioidx will be set to the low index.

when we set the high index cgroup's net_prio.ifpriomap,the function
write_priomap will call update_netdev_tables to alloc memory which
size is sizeof(struct netprio_map) + sizeof(u32) * (max_prioidx + 1),
so the size of array that map->priomap point to is max_prioidx +1,
which is low than what we actually need.

fix this by adding check in get_prioidx,only set max_prioidx when
max_prioidx low than the new prioidx.

This is still racy.

Please do this before the
