vPMD Tx function assumes that after the scatter of the
multi-segment packets the next packet will be a single segment packet.

This is not current as the function can return due to lack of resources
without sending all of the multi-segment mbufs sequence.

Fixes: 6cb559d67b83 ("net/mlx5: add vectorized Rx/Tx burst for x86")
