The fields [t|r]x_queues through whole driver code contains the number
and not bitmap (as far as I understand), so I thought that keeping
this convention is more important for better code readability,
saving in these fields something different is very confusing, IMHO,
and potentially leads to such issues that this commit is trying to solve.

If so, then is it better to check the type of the fields in compile-time rather than in runtime ?
Something like this:
BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(vqs->rx_queues) != sizeof(u32));
BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(vqs->tx_queues) != sizeof(u32));
This is not required comparison each time when function is called and made code more optimized.

Again, from optimization POV it is better to have constant changed than variable,
since it is compile time and not run time action:
if ((vqs->rx_queues == 0 && vqs->tx_queues == 0) ||
vqs->rx_queues >= (BIT(I40E_MAX_VF_QUEUES)) ||
vqs->tx_queues >= (BIT(I40E_MAX_VF_QUEUES)))
