Motivation was to get the "kselftest -t net/forwarding:ethtool_mm.sh" test to work without requiring additional manual step of increasing the TX channels.
Another issue is that all network interfaces (can be up to 4 on some devices) have to be brought down if TX channel count needs to change.
I am not aware why this was not done from the beginning.
