On the vector implementation, during the tear-down, the mbufs not
drained in the RxQ and TxQ are freed based on an algorithm which
supposed that the number of descriptors is a power of 2 (max_desc).
Based on this hypothesis, this algorithm uses a bitmask in order to
detect an index overflow during the iteration, and to restart the loop
from 0.

However, there is no such power of 2 requirement in the ixgbe for the
number of descriptors in the RxQ / TxQ. The only requirement is to have
a number correctly aligned.

If a user requested to configure a number of descriptors which is not a
power of 2, as a consequence, during the tear-down, it was possible to
be in an infinite loop, and to never reach the exit loop condition.

By removing the bitmask and changing the loop method, we can avoid this
issue, and allow the user to configure a RxQ / TxQ which is not a power
of 2.
