vfio/pci: Virtualize Maximum Read Request Size
MRRS defines the maximum read request size a device is allowed to make. Drivers will often increase this to allow more data transfer with a single request. Completions to this request are bound by the MPS setting for the bus. Aside from device quirks (none known), it doesn't seem to make sense to set an MRRS value less than MPS, yet this is a likely scenario given that user drivers do not have a system-wide view of the PCI topology. Virtualize MRRS such that the user can set MRRS >= MPS, but use MPS as the floor value that we'll write to hardware. Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
