Sets the default maximum ring num based on virtio_set_max_ring_num().

The default maximum ring num is 1024.

Having a default value is pretty useful, I see 32K is used by default for IFCVF.

Rethink this, how about having a different default value based on the speed?

Without SPEED_DUPLEX, we use 1024. Otherwise

10g 4096
40g 8192

We can define different default values of tx and rx by the way. This way I can
just use it in the new interface of find_vqs().

without SPEED_DUPLEX:  tx 512 rx 1024

Thanks.

etc.

(The number are just copied from the 10g/40g default parameter from
other vendors)

Thanks
