It was Sashiko comment at some point that I should add this protection as
a faulty HW could respond with sge cap to be 0 or 1. I can remove this check as
it is useless, but it is true that a faulty HW could return 0 or 1 and it may result
in a bug. I am happy to remove, but I also think that AI had a point.

Leon, should I remote it?

It was Sashiko comment at some point. I also agree that it is partially redundant, but it also
helps to detect u32 overflow. I think we should keep as we had a similar comment
for CQ u32 overflow, and Sashiko rated it as High. I think better safe than sorry
