Since the ESX virtual hardware version 4.0, virtual machines support up
to 10 virtual NICs instead of 4 previously. This changes the limit
accordingly based on the provided `virtualHW.version`.

This allows 4 nics for the old ESX version (if controller = 4 then this
would be reported, but with your patch it isn't anymore), and 11 nics
for the new EXS (if controller = 10, then this again is not caught
properly). We need to decrease those 4 and 10 and ..
virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR,
- _("Ethernet controller index %d out of [0..3] range"),
- controller);
+ _("Ethernet controller index %d out of [0..%d] range"),

.. drop this -1.
No need to send v2, I can fix it just before pushing, if you agree with
suggested change.
