Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: Re-enable relaxed ordering as part of init/restart
 sequence for non-DCA config


Relaxed ordering is disabled by default at driver initialization
and re-enabled when DCA is used. The reason it is disabled  was
due to an issue on some chipsets (see comments in ixgbe_update_tx_dca()).
But when DCA is not used, RO needs to be re-enabled, else we have
a serialization bottleneck on platforms like SPARC.

This patch eliminates the bottleneck for ixgbe when DCA is not configured.
