x86/busdma: Limit reserved pages if low nsegs

When bus_dmamap_create is called, if bouncing might be required we
reserve enough pages for a maximum-length request, subject to the
MAX_BPAGES constraint (32 MB on amd64; 32 MB or 2 MB on i386
depending on the amount of RAM).

Since pages used for bouncing are typically non-consecutive, each
bounced page will typically constitute a busdma segment; as such, we
are unlikely to ever successfully use more pages than the nsegments
limit.  Limit the number of pages reserved to nsegments.

On FreeBSD/Firecracker, this reduces bounce page memory consumption
from 32 MB to 512 kB, making VMs with 128 MB of RAM usable.
