[ Upstream commitf3a72878a3] 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.

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.
