[PATCH net-next] enic: reconfigure resources for kdump crash kernel

[PATCH net-next] enic: reconfigure resources for kdump crash kernel

[Govindarajulu Varadarajan]

When running in kdump kernel, reduce number of resources used by the driver.
This will enable NIC to operate in low memory kdump kernel environment.

Also change the driver version to .83
