I really hate having all kinds of different interfaces for configurations.
Maybe we should redo this similar to the other hardware/software interfaces
and have a hw_ limit that is exposed by the driver and re-only in
sysfs, and then the user configurable one without _hw.  Setting it to
zero disables the feature.
