MT7981,7986 and 7988 all supports 32768 PPE entries, and MT7621/MT7620
supports 16384 PPE entries, but only set to 8192 entries in driver. So
incrase max entries to 16384 instead.

Changes since V1:
 - Reduced max entries from 32768 to 16384 to keep compatible with MT7620/21 devices.
 - Add fixes tag

@Sean, @Mark, @Lorenzo or @Felix, can any of you actually test this?

Thanks!

nit: Fixes tag usually goes before the sign-offs

This doesn't strike me as a bug fix, tho. What's the user-visible
impact? We can't utilize HW to its full abilities?

Hi,

BT download and PCDN would create tons of connections, and might be
easily to reach the 8192 limit, one of my friend sees 50000+ links when
hosting PCDN.

Best regards,
Shengyu

I don't know what PCDN is, but what we care about in Linux is whether
the change under Fixes introduced a regression. Optimizations, and 
improvements no matter how trivial in terms of code are not fixes.
So did ba37b7caf1ed ("net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: add support for
initializing the PPE") make things worse. And if you're saying there
are 50k "links" in real world why is 16k a major win? it's 1/3rd of
the total.

Hi,

PCDN means P2P CDN[1]; This modification already exists in a heavily
modified openwrt fork here[2] for over 2 years so it should be working
with to regression. Although a higher limit would be better for PCDN use
case, but only newer devices like MT7986 supports 32768 max entries.
Setting to 16384 would keep old devices working.

Makes sense but not a fix, please resend without CC stable and without
the fixes tag.
