Actually, is this correct, does a range actually apply here? 

I thought that the number of queue flows supported was a guide as to how
internal HW resources were to be allocated, and that the flow_id was always
a 20-bit value, where it was up to the scheduler to work out how to map
that to internal atomic locks (when combined with queue ids etc.). It
should not be up to the app to have to do the range limiting itself!
