limits: 256 PCI functions, 128 sockets and devices, 64 USB interfaces

The fixed tables that a bigger machine than the one they were written
on reaches first, each raised to where it costs little:

  NPCI       64 -> 256   a desktop with cards and Thunderbolt passes 64,
                         and the devices past it -- often the disk or
                         NIC last in bus order -- were ignored; 44 KB
  NSOCK      32 -> 128   Unix sockets, which a desktop session uses by
                         the dozen; 4.9 KB each, 470 KB in all
  NDEVICE    32 -> 128   120 bytes each
  NIFDEV     16 -> 64    one dock is a hub, Ethernet, audio and a card
                         reader at two or three interfaces apiece
  NETIF_MAX   4 -> 8

Device names took one digit and clamped there, so the tenth device of
a kind and every one after it was named "...9". Two digits now.

Checked under QEMU with two bridges of test devices: 68 functions,
all in lspci, /proc/pci and /sys/bus/pci.
