[PATCH net-next 1/6] netvsc: optimize calculation of number of slots

[Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>]

Speed up transmit check for fragmented packets by using existing
macros to compute number of pages, and eliminate loop since
skb fragments each take a page. Number of slots is also unsigned.
