Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 155/168] tg3: fix ring init when there are more TX than RX channels

3.16.7-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit a620a6bc1c94c22d6c312892be1e0ae171523125 upstream.

If TX channels are set to 4 and RX channels are set to less than 4,
using ethtool -L, the driver will try to initialize more RX channels
than it has allocated, causing an oops.

This fix only initializes the RX ring if it has been allocated.
