The number of items in pool_l4_t is defined to UIO_MAXIOV,
not TAP_SEQS. TAP_SEQS is the number of the messages.

Fix the value used to compare seq->p.count with.

Fix: bb708111833e ("treewide: Packet abstraction with mandatory boundary checks")

In fact, it actually fixes:

Fix: 37c228ada88b ("tap, tcp, udp, icmp: Cut down on some oversized buffers")

that replaces UIO_MAXIOV by TAP_SEQS in the array declaration and didn't correclty update 
the code.

Thanks,
Laurent

...sequences of packets (within the same connection), rather than
"messages" (which might sound like packets).

I was wondering why throughput tests on the tap path, namespace to
host, started failing miserably with this (0.4 Gbps instead of 7 Gbps
with small packets).

It turned out that yes, the pool has UIO_MAXIOV items, but (also by
mistake in some sense) we initialised only the first TAP_SEQS ones. This
fixes it:
