[PATCH v1 1/3] i40e: use minimal tx and rx pairs for kdump

From: Coiby Xu <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-04 02:58:53
Also in: intel-wired-lan, kexec, lkml
Subsystem: intel ethernet drivers, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Tony Nguyen, Przemek Kitszel, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Set the number of the MSI-X vectors to 1. When MSI-X is enabled,
it's not allowed to use more TC queue pairs than MSI-X vectors
(pf->num_lan_msix) exist. Thus the number of tx and rx pairs
(vsi->num_queue_pairs) will be equal to the number of MSI-X vectors,
i.e., 1.
