    RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix max SGEs for the Work Request

    Gen P7 supports up to 13 SGEs for now. WQE software structure
    can hold only 6 now. Since the max send sge is reported as
    13, the stack can give requests up to 13 SGEs. This is causing
    traffic failures and system crashes.

    Use the define for max SGE supported for variable size. This
    will work for both static and variable WQEs.
