net/mlx4_en: fix ethtool -x

mlx4 RSS is limited to spread incoming packets to a power of two number
of queues.

An uniformly distibuted traffic would be split on queues 0 to N-1, N
being a power of two, each queue having a 1/N weight.

If number of RX queues is not a power of two, upper RX queues do not
receive traffic.

ethtool -x is lying, because it pretends some queues have higher weight.

Before patch:

lpaa24:~# ethtool -L eth1 rx 24
lpaa24:~# ethtool -x eth1
RX flow hash indirection table for eth1 with 24 RX ring(s):
    0:      0     1     2     3     4     5     6     7
    8:      8     9    10    11    12    13    14    15
   16:      0     1     2     3     4     5     6     7
RSS hash key:
e0:7c:3a:89:07:55:b6:58:69:cc:f4:e5:24:62:e3:25:88:6c:42:5b:d2:cb:9a:d2:e0:06:e1:dc:f9:09:a1:89:0f:a0:30:43:73:6f:0c:b6

If this information was correct, user space tools could expect queues 0
to 7 to receive twice more traffic than queues 8 to 15

After patch :

lpaa24:~# ethtool -L eth1 rx 24
lpaa24:~# ethtool -x eth1
RX flow hash indirection table for eth1 with 24 RX ring(s):
    0:      0     1     2     3     4     5     6     7
    8:      8     9    10    11    12    13    14    15
