How limited are the IPoIB devices, TX descriptor wise?

One side effect of the TSO changes is that one extra descriptor
will be used for outgoing packets.  This is because we have to
put the headers as well as the user data, into page based
buffers now.

Perhaps you can experiment with increasing the transmit descriptor
table size, if that's possible.
