There is a use case with the rxm provider where it needs the maximum size of 
the CQ that the underlying message provider can create.  For everyone who's 
forgotten, the 1.7 release will introduce a new set of hardware attributes 
through a fid_nic structure.

I'm considering adding an fi_device_limits structure to this in order to expose 
hardware specific limitations, with at least the following fields being defined:

- ep_cnt, tx_size, tx_cnt, rx_size, rx_cnt, cq_size, cn_cnt, stx_cnt, srx_cnt, 
av_size

Does anyone have opinions on this?
