net/mlx4: MLX4_TX_BOUNCE_BUFFER_SIZE depends on MAX_SKB_FRAGS

Browse Source 
Google production kernel has increased MAX_SKB_FRAGS to 45
for BIG-TCP rollout.

Unfortunately mlx4 TX bounce buffer is not big enough whenever
an skb has up to 45 page fragments.

This can happen often with TCP TX zero copy, as one frag usually
holds 4096 bytes of payload (order-0 page).

Tested:
 Kernel built with MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45
 ip link set dev eth0 gso_max_size 185000
 netperf -t TCP_SENDFILE

I made sure that "ethtool -G eth0 tx 64" was properly working,
ring->full_size being set to 15.
