net/mlx5: fix Rx buffer replenishment threshold

Browse Source 
The threshold of buffer replenishment for vectorized Rx burst is a constant
value (64). If the size of Rx queue is comparatively small, device could
run out of buffers. For example, if the size of Rx queue is 128, buffers
are replenished only twice per a wraparound. This can cause jitter in
receiving packets and the jitter can cause unnecessary retransmission for
TCP connections.

Fixes: 6cb559d67b ("net/mlx5: add vectorized Rx/Tx burst for x86")
Fixes: 570acdb1da ("net/mlx5: add vectorized Rx/Tx burst for ARM")
