Subject: [PATCH net 3/3] bnxt_en: Fix stats context reservation logic

The HW resource reservation logic allows the L2 driver to use the
RoCE resources if the RoCE driver is not registered.  When calculating
the stats contexts available for L2, we should not blindly subtract
the stats contexts reserved for RoCE unless the RoCE driver is
registered.  This bug may cause the L2 rings to be less than the
number requested when we are close to running out of stats contexts.
