[PATCH v3] fsi: sbefifo: Bump max command length

Otherwise cronus putmem fails istep and BML fails to upload skiboot

To do that, we still use our one-page command buffer for small commands
for speed, and for anything bigger, with a limit of 1MB plus a page,
we vmalloc a temporary buffer.

The limit was chosen because Cronus will break up any data transfer
into 1M chunks (the extra page is for the command header).

 v3. Factor the buffer cleanup code into a helper function

 v2. Reduce max to 1MB + PAGE_SIZE which is enough for Cronus as
     it will break up transfers in 1MB chunks and we can make
     sure pdbg does the same.
