Re: [PATCH net-next] selftests: drv-net: toeplitz: cap the Rx queue count

The RPS test needs a free CPU within the first RPS_MAX_CPUS (16)
cores. This is easily violated if the NIC or env allocates the
IRQs to cores linearly.

Cap the Rx queues at 8, we don't need more. This makes the test
pass on CX7 in NIPA.

This assumes that combined and rx are not set at the same time.
SGTM, not expected in real devices. But technically they could be.
