virtio_net: clamp rss_max_key_size to NETDEV_RSS_KEY_LEN

commit b4e5f04c58a29c499faa85d12952ca9a4faf1cb9 upstream.

rss_max_key_size in the virtio spec is the maximum key size supported by
the device, not a mandatory size the driver must use. Also the value 40
is a spec minimum, not a spec maximum.

The current code rejects RSS and can fail probe when the device reports a
larger rss_max_key_size than the driver buffer limit. Instead, clamp the
effective key length to min(device rss_max_key_size, NETDEV_RSS_KEY_LEN)
and keep RSS enabled.

This keeps probe working on devices that advertise larger maximum key sizes
while respecting the netdev RSS key buffer size limit.
