The BNXT_FLAG_AGG_RINGS flag is true if the JUMBO, GRO, or LRO flag is
set.  So even though it is initially cleared in
bnxt_set_rx_skb_mode(), we'll set the JUMBO flag if we are in
multi-buffer XDP mode.  Again, we don't enable HDS in any XDP mode so
I think we need to keep the original logic here to skip setting the
HDS threshold if BNXT_FLAG_RX_PAGE_MODE is set.
