====================
xen-netback: fix rx slot estimation

Sander Eikelenboom reported an issue with ring overflow in netback in
3.14-rc3. This turns outo be be because of a bug in the ring slot estimation
code. This patch series fixes the slot estimation, fixes the BUG_ON() that
was supposed to catch the issue that Sander ran into and also makes a small
fix to start_new_rx_buffer().

v3:
 - Added a cap of MAX_SKB_FRAGS to estimate in patch #2

v2:
 - Added BUG_ON() to patch #1
 - Added more explanation to patch #3
