Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix Tx when first segment size is too short

[ upstream commit 959be52e9308255692ddd6f72ff0a7eb977d07cd ]

First segment size must be at least 18 bytes, packets not respecting this
are silently not sent by the NIC but counted as sent by the PMD.  The only
way to figure out is compiling the PMD in debug mode.

Fixes: 6579c27c11a5 ("net/mlx5: remove gather loop on segments")
