NACK,  However, we can change it to static variable.

DPAA2 supports two methods for allocating the RX descriptors.

1. Fast memory - low-latency PEB memory - The size is limited, so we 
globally track the number of buffers across devices.

2. Normal memory - no limit as they are from DDR.

This variable help in tracking that overall rx descriptor across devices 
are not crossing the memory limit of MAX_NB_RX_DESC
