Looks good. But we could also print "%u/%u ports", keeping the max port number
from cap ((cap & 0x1f) + 1) and the actual port count implemented
(hweight32(impl)).
This would be less confusing/more informational as the maximum number of ports
for the adapter may still be equal to (cap & 0x1f) + 1 even though a lower
number of ports is implemented.
