    igb: cope with large MAX_SKB_FRAGS
    
    [ Upstream commit 8aba27c4a5020abdf60149239198297f88338a8d ]
    
    Sabrina reports that the igb driver does not cope well with large
    MAX_SKB_FRAG values: setting MAX_SKB_FRAG to 45 causes payload
    corruption on TX.
    
    An easy reproducer is to run ssh to connect to the machine.  With
    MAX_SKB_FRAGS=17 it works, with MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45 it fails.  This has
    been reported originally in
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2265320
    
    The root cause of the issue is that the driver does not take into
    account properly the (possibly large) shared info size when selecting
    the ring layout, and will try to fit two packets inside the same 4K
    page even when the 1st fraglist will trump over the 2nd head.
    
    Address the issue by checking if 2K buffers are insufficient.
