   92 |         char irq_set_buf[MSIX_IRQ_SET_BUF_LEN];
      |              ^

Since the number of IRQ is limited by EAL max interrupt vectors
use that define that already exists rather than a function call
hidden in a macro.

[HK] The value of MSIX_IRQ_SET_BUF_LEN should be derived from the maximum 
number of interrupts configured for a PCI device,
as obtained via plt_intr_max_intr_get(intr_handle), which internally uses the 
VFIO_DEVICE_GET_IRQ_INFO ioctl.
In contrast, PLT_MAX_RXTX_INTR_VEC_ID is a fixed default value representing the 
maximum number of interrupt vectors.
This mismatch may lead to unexpected behaviour as on certain platforms (like 
cnxk) where the PCI device's MSIX capability
may exceed PLT_MAX_RXTX_INTR_VEC_ID.
