[PATCH net] ibmvnic: Fall back to 16 H_SEND_SUB_CRQ_INDIRECT entries with old FW

[Juliet Kim]

The maximum entries for H_SEND_SUB_CRQ_INDIRECT has increased on
some platforms from 16 to 128. If Live Partition Mobility is used
to migrate a running OS image from a newer source platform to an
older target platform, then H_SEND_SUB_CRQ_INDIRECT will fail with
H_PARAMETER if 128 entries are queued.

Fix this by falling back to 16 entries if H_PARAMETER is returned
from the hcall().
