Trusted peers are supposed to be able to bypass the maxPeers limit. This logic was appropriately executed in p2p/server.go, but the eth handler and les handler also check maxPeers which were previously ignoring the trusted flag for peers.
I tested this locally with some empty blockchains (I'm on bad wifi, can't complete a sync right now), and the "too many peers" error did indeed go away after this fix.
Let me know if there is a good place to write a test for this, or if this is good enough as is (fairly simple change).
Fixes #3326, #14472
