  qeth: fix calculation of required buffer elements for skb

Bug description:
  Description:  qeth: fix calculation of required buffer elements for
  skb

  Symptom:      Repeated device recovery due to Subchannel Program
  Checks

  Problem:      skbs of certain lengths cause qeth to miscalculate the
                number of needed IO buffer elements, resulting in
                malformed TX buffer descriptors. When such a buffer is
                presented to the HW, it triggers a Subchannel Program
                Check. qeth handles this by starting device recovery.

  Solution:     Fix the buffer element calculation, so that qeth builds
                proper TX buffer descriptors.

  Reproduction: Occurs for skbs where the last byte of the linear data
                range / of a page frag sits on a page boundary.
