[PATCH 5.10.y] ice: fix VF queue configuration with low MTU values

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Jose Ignacio Tornos Martinez <jtornosm@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 3ba4dd024d26372733d1c02e13e076c6016e3320 ]

The ice driver's VF queue configuration validation rejects
databuffer_size values below 1024 bytes, which prevents VFs from
using MTU values below 871 bytes.

The iavf driver calculates databuffer_size based on the MTU using:
  databuffer_size = ALIGN(MTU + LIBETH_RX_LL_LEN, 128)

where LIBETH_RX_LL_LEN = 26 (ETH_HLEN + 2*VLAN_HLEN + ETH_FCS_LEN).

For MTU values below 871:
  MTU 870: 870 + 26 = 896, aligned to 128 = 896 (< 1024, rejected)
  MTU 871: 871 + 26 = 897, aligned to 128 = 1024 (>= 1024, accepted)

The 1024-byte minimum seems unnecessarily restrictive, because the hardware
supports databuffer_size as low as 128 bytes (the alignment boundary),
which should allow MTU values down to the standard minimum of 68 bytes.

I haven't found the reason why the limit was configured in the commit
9c7dd7566d18 ("ice: add validation in OP_CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES VF message"), so
with no more information and since it is working, change the minimum
databuffer_size validation from 1024 to 128 bytes to allow standard low
MTU values while still preventing invalid configurations.
