Tx desc's DD status is not cleaned by NIC automatically after packets
have been transmitted until software refill a new packet during next
loop. So when tx_free_thresh + tx_rs_thresh > nb_desc, it is possible
that an outdated DD status be checked as tx_next_dd, then segment fault
happen due to free a NULL mbuf pointer.

Then patch fixes this issue by
1. try to adapt tx_rs_thresh to an aggressive tx_free_thresh.
2. queue setup fail when tx_free_thresh + tx_rs_thresh > nb_desc
