    virtio_net: set the default max ring size by find_vqs()

    Use virtio_find_vqs_ctx_size() to specify the maximum ring size of tx,
    rx at the same time.

                             | rx/tx ring size
    -------------------------------------------
    speed == UNKNOWN or < 10G| 1024
    speed < 40G              | 4096
    speed >= 40G             | 8192

    Call virtnet_update_settings() once before calling init_vqs() to update
    speed.

I'm not 100% confident yet, because the likelihood of encountering problems
was not uniform across the versions, with one of them showing the problem only
in 1/3 boots, whereas some of the others showed it 100% of the time. But I've
rebooted enough times to be fairly confident.

With 762faee5a267 I reliably see network not connecting, with
762faee5a267^=fe3dc04e31aa I haven't seen a problem yet.


I did see some other types of crashes in commits nearby, so this might not be
the only problematic bit. See also the discussion around
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wikzU4402P-FpJRK_QwfVOS+t-3p1Wx5awGHTvr-s_0Ew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
