  Before this patch, VF must request a specific queues(1/2/4/8/16) with
DPDK PF. This patch align the number of requested queues to next power
of 2. So VF can request any number queues from 1 to 16.

Shouldn't you do this before you validate against the number of free
queue pairs? or it is somehow handled

Before PF alloc queue to VF, PF will check the queue number in i40e_res_pool_alloc().
Suppose there are 15 queues left in PF, this part will check 12 as a valid value if request 12 queues,
 But PF  will refuse to alloc 16 queue.

Hello. In that scenario the vsi is reset and there is a failed setup,
whereas it could be caught here and max rounded value sent back to vf. I
will send a patch to show what I mean (compile tested only). Please take
a look.
