I'll make this change in the next version.

I originally left max_srq as int because its only consumer pairs it with
num_comp_vectors (a signed int) in nvmet_rdma, so keeping it int let
that site stay a plain min() instead of a min_t().

num_comp_vectors is the completion-vector count, legitimately int and
never anywhere near INT_MAX, so I'd prefer to leave it signed rather
than convert it everywhere. Does that work for you, or would you rather
num_comp_vectors be converted too?

If it needs converting, I'll do it as a separate patch, since it lives
in a different struct (ib_device) and touches many call sites.
Otherwise, using min_t() for just this one call is fine too.

Thanks,
Vennela
