Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ixgbe: Set rss key in order.

If we use ethtool to set rss key, for example,
we except 0x6d is K[0], and 0x5a is K[1]. But
the ixgbe driver set the 0xda is K[0].

ethtool -X eth0 hkey 6d:5a:56:da:25:5b:0e:c2:41:67:25:3d
	:43:a3:8f:b0:d0:ca:2b:cb:ae:7b:30:b4:77:cb:2d:a3
	:80:30:f2:0c:6a:42:b7:3b:be:ac:01:fa

The key is the original Microsoft's key.

7.1.2.8.1 RSS Hash Function: (82599 datasheet)
Given an array K with k bytes, our nomenclature assumes
that the array is laid out as follows:

K[0] K[1] K[2] ... K[k-1]

K[0] is the left-most byte, and the MSB of K[0] is the
left-most bit. K[k-1] is the right-most byte, and the
LSB of K[k-1] is the right-most bit.

8.2.3.7.14 RSS Random Key Register:
The K[0] is the 7:0 bit of RSSRK (RSS Random Key Register).
