[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 1/2] net/ena: fix Rx descriptors allocation

[ backported from upstream commit a467e8f37a3eec98210c0c3ec04bf6e9506ddd81 ]

When application tried to allocate 1024 descriptors, device was not
initializing properly.

This patch solves it by avoiding allocation of all descriptors in the
ring in one attempt. At least one descriptor must remain unused in the
HW ring.

Fixes: 1173fca25af9 ("ena: add polling-mode driver")
