There is a corner case in which driver won't post
receive buffers when driver has processed all received packets
in single loop (i.e. hw_consumer == sw_consumer) and then
HW will start dropping packets since it did not see new receive
buffers posted.

This corner case is seen when size of Rx ring is less than or equals
Rx packet burst count for dev->rx_pkt_burst().

Fixes: 8f2312474529 ("net/qede: fix performance bottleneck in Rx path")
