Ok, squashing the following patch into the original to use
ha->fw_xcb_count (if available) for determining the worst-case per
session number of tags. Note this currently ends up being ~1.7 MB of
pre-allocated descriptors per session.
Also, I assume the pad is required for ha->fw_xcb_count as well.. In
that case, the patch below also adds a extra define for 40 extra tags
following your pad comment above.
