I'm not sure what the right number is here.  Say worst case is header which 
goes over a page boundary then MAX_SKB_FRAGS in the skb, but for some reason 
that already has a +2:

/* To allow 64K frame to be packed as single skb without frag_list */
#define MAX_SKB_FRAGS (65536/PAGE_SIZE + 2)

Unless someone explains, I'll change the xmit sg to 2+MAX_SKB_FRAGS as well.

Thanks,
Rusty.
