Re: [PATCH net-next v1 5/8] net: dsa: realtek: rtl8365mb: store the egress queue count per chip

Store the number of egress queues in the per-chip info structure and

(struct ksz_chip_data.num_tx_queues).

The queue count is a per-chip hardware property, and this driver supports
several chips of the rtl8367c family. All currently-supported chips expose
eight queues, but keeping the count in chip_info lets the QoS code that
follows program the priority-to-queue map via the ieee8021q helpers for
whatever queue count a chip carries, so the 802.1Q collapse is correct
rather than hard-coded to eight.

RTL8366RB has 8 queues so it's fine to keep this separate
per-subdriver.
