The crash happens with default configuration since
[4acb41903b2f99f3dffd4c3df9acc84ca5942cb2] "net/tcp: Fix tcp memory
limits initialization when !CONFIG_SYSCTL", but it can be hit by
increasing values of tcp_wmem even earlier.
We want to submit a semantic patch into net-next once the two branches are
merged, but the original patch from Eric needs to go -stable.
Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH net-next] bnx2x: reservation for NEXT tx BDs
Commit [4acb41903b2f99f3dffd4c3df9acc84ca5942cb2]
net/tcp: Fix tcp memory limits initialization when !CONFIG_SYSCTL
provided new default value for tcp_wmem, since heavy tcp
traffic may cause the TSO packet to consume 20 BDs + 1 for next page
descriptor.
Eric has fixed the reservation in
[bc14786a100cc6a81cd060e8031ec481241b418c]
bnx2x: fix panic when TX ring is full, this patch provides some
inline explanation for magic numbers are used and fixes condition for
statistics increment in a similar way.
