[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ethdev: add a missing sanity check for nb_tx_desc during txq setup

[Rahul Lakkireddy <rahul.lakkireddy@chelsio.com>]

Add a sanity check for number of tx descriptors requested during tx
queue setup.  Return -EINVAL if the number requested does not meet
the tx descriptor requirements of the device.

Fixes: 80a1deb4c77a ("ethdev: add API to retrieve queue information")
