QLGE driver only supports 4k, 8k, and 64k pages.
Default page size on ia64 is 16k. Compile fails with:
drivers/net/qlge/qlge.h:1118: error: 'TX_DESC_PER_OAL' undeclared here (not in a function)

Patch below makes the cause of the compile failure obvious.
(Better would be to support 16k pages but I don't have the HW or interest.)

I would rather, at this point, give the qlge guys a day or two to
try and add support for other page sizes if that is possible.

If it isn't possible, I'd rather see a Kconfig guard, a compile
failure is really not acceptable.
