Currently we use the ICE_MBXQ_LEN for both the Mailbox send and receive queues that are used to communicate with VFs. This is fine for the send queue because the PF driver will lock the queue for every single send, but for the Mailbox receive queue every VF is posting to its Mailbox send queue and the hardware is then handing the message to the PF on its Mailbox receive queue. This becomes a problem with many VFs because it seems to overburden the Mailbox receive queue on the PF. Fix this by increasing the Mailbox receive queue for the PF to 512 entries. The number 512 was determined based on the number of VFs supported by the device. We can have a total of 256 VFs so in the worst case this allows the VFs to put 2 messages in the PFs Mailbox receive queue at the same time.
