I am fine with this change but just want to point it out that
the logic here deviates from the other OSes somewhat as they
populate the two rings differently:
The first ring has type (HEAD, BODY, BODY, HEAD, BODY, BODY)
assuming 3 descriptors are needed to hold a pkt of MTU size.
The 2nd ring is all BODY type. Only if BODY type from 1st ring
runs out will the 2nd ring be used.
Here the first ring is exclusively of HEAD type and any pkts
that cannot hold in the HEAD descriptor will go to the 2nd
ring. This will work but then the number of descriptors that
actually are needed from the first ring is smaller. If we
populates the 1st ring based on MTU as other OSes do, then
we just need 1 ring to handle jumbo frame, which ends up with
smaller working set, etc.

nit: change this to VMXNET3(rxq->start_seg == NULL) to be consistent
with the check for start != NULL in the else block.

Can you add back the assert VMXNET3_ASSERT(rcd->sop && rcd->top) here.
