qede: prevent chip hang when increasing channels qede requires qed to provide enough resources to accommodate 16 combined channels, but that upper-bound isn't actually being enforced by it. Instead, qed inform back to qede how many channels can be opened based on available resources - but that calculation doesn't really take into account the resources requested by qede; Instead it considers other FW/HW available resources. As a result, if a user would increase the number of channels to more than 16 [e.g., using ethtool] the chip would hang. This change increments the resources requested by qede to 64 combined channels instead of 16; This value is an upper bound on the possible available channels [due to other FW/HW resources].
