From: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicin...@netronome.com> ethtool_set_channels() validates the config against driver's max settings. It retrieves the current config and stores it in a variable called max. This was okay when only max settings were accessed but we will soon want to access current settings as well, so calling the entire structure max makes the code less readable.
While at it drop unnecessary parenthesis.
