net: core: reduce recursion limit value

Browse Source 
In the current code, ->ndo_start_xmit() can be executed recursively only
10 times because of stack memory.
But, in the case of the vxlan, 10 recursion limit value results in
a stack overflow.
In the current code, the nested interface is limited by 8 depth.
There is no critical reason that the recursion limitation value should
be 10.
So, it would be good to be the same value with the limitation value of
nesting interface depth.

Test commands:
    ip link add vxlan10 type vxlan vni 10 dstport 4789 srcport 4789 4789
    ip link set vxlan10 up
    ip a a 192.168.10.1/24 dev vxlan10
    ip n a 192.168.10.2 dev vxlan10 lladdr fc:22:33:44:55:66 nud permanent

    for i in {9..0}
    do
        let A=$i+1
	ip link add vxlan$i type vxlan vni $i dstport 4789 srcport 4789 4789
	ip link set vxlan$i up
	ip a a 192.168.$i.1/24 dev vxlan$i
	ip n a 192.168.$i.2 dev vxlan$i lladdr fc:22:33:44:55:66 nud permanent
	bridge fdb add fc:22:33:44:55:66 dev vxlan$A dst 192.168.$i.2 self
    done
