Fix a potential counter roll-over issue in fbnic_mbx_alloc_rx_msgs()
when calculating descriptor slots. The issue occurs when head - tail
results in a large positive value (unsigned) and the compiler interprets
head - tail - 1 as a signed value.

Since FBNIC_IPC_MBX_DESC_LEN is a power of two, use a masking operation,
which is a common way of avoiding this problem when dealing with these
sort of ring space calculations.
