ixgbe: Make better use of memory allocations in one-buffer mode w/ RSC
This patch improves the memory utilization with RSC when in one-buffer mode. This is accomplished by making the default buffer sizes match up with the standard memory allocation sizes minus 1K for shared info and padding overhead. By doing this CPU utilization when doing large receives can be reduced by as much as 8%.
