atl1: fix oops when changing tx/rx ring params
commit 2f32c867219734b06abc980d4812f67b6d6fe517 upstream. Commit 3f5a2a713aad28480d86b0add00c68484b54febc zeroes out the statistics message block (SMB) and coalescing message block (CMB) when adapter ring resources are freed. This is desirable behavior, but, as a side effect, the commit leads to an oops when atl1_set_ringparam() attempts to alter the number of rx or tx elements in the ring buffer (by using ethtool -G, for example). We don't want SMB or CMB to change during this operation. Modify atl1_set_ringparam() to preserve SMB and CMB when changing ring parameters.
