Extend the size of QSFP EEPROM for types SSF8436 and SFF8636
from 256 to 640 bytes in order to expose all the EEPROM pages by
ethtool.
For SFF-8636 and SFF-8436 specifications, the driver exposes
256 bytes of EEPROM data for ethtool's get_module_eeprom()
callback, resulting in "netlink error: Invalid argument" when
an EEPROM read with an offset larger than 256 bytes is attempted.
Changing the length enumerators to the _MAX_LEN
variants exposes all 640 bytes of the EEPROM allowing upper
pages 1, 2 and 3 to be read.
Fixes: 96d971e307 ("ethtool: Add fallback to get_module_eeprom from netlink command")

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.
