Instead of checking the gen number every time we need to know the max
number of entries, just save it into the table struct so we don't need
extra branches throughout the code. This will be useful for Ice Lake
that has 64 rather than 62 defined entries. Ice Lake changes will be
added in a follow up.
v2: make size and n_entries `unsigned int` and introduce changes as a
pre-work for the Ice Lake changes (Tvrtko)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
