Subject: [PATCH v10 11/14] powerpc/vas: Do not use default credits for
 receive window


System checkstops if RxFIFO overruns with more requests than the
maximum possible number of CRBs allowed in FIFO at any time. So
max credits value (rxattr.wcreds_max) is set and is passed to
vas_rx_win_open() by the the driver.
