> Currently if a user sets an odd [tx|rx]-usecs value through ethtool, the
> request is denied because the hardware is set to have an ITR granularity of
> 2us. This caused poor customer experience. Fix this by aligning to a register
> allowed value, which results in rounding down.
> Also, print a once per ring container type message to be clear about our
> intentions.
> 
> Also, change the ITR_TO_REG define to be the bitwise and of the ITR setting
> and the ICE_ITR_MASK. This makes the purpose of ITR_TO_REG more
> obvious.
