In systems where you may have a very large number of network
adapters, certain drivers may consume an unfair amount of
IRQ resources.  So, allow a module param that will limit the
number of IRQs at driver load time.  This way, other drivers
(40G Ethernet, for instance), which probably will need the
multiple IRQs more, will not be starved of IRQ resources.

Sorry, no module params.

Use generic run-time facilities such as ethtool to configure
such things.
