Check vring size and fail probe if a transmit/receive vring size is
smaller than MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 2.

At the moment, any vring size is accepted. This is problematic because
it may result in attempting to transmit a packet with more fragments
than there are descriptors in the ring.

Furthermore, it leads to an immediate bug:

The condition: (sq->vq->num_free >= 2 + MAX_SKB_FRAGS) in
virtnet_poll_cleantx and virtnet_poll_tx always evaluates to false,
so netif_tx_wake_queue is not called, leading to TX timeouts.
