Subject: [PATCH 4.18 174/235] liquidio: fix hang when re-binding VF host drv after running DPDK VF driver

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rick Farrington <ricardo.farrington@...ium.com>

[ Upstream commit ac13d6d8eaded15c67265eafc32f439ea3a0ac4a ]

When configuring SLI_PKTn_OUTPUT_CONTROL, VF driver was assuming that IPTR
mode was disabled by reset, which was not true.  Since DPDK driver had
set IPTR mode previously, the VF driver (which uses buf-ptr-only mode) was
not properly handling DROQ packets (i.e. it saw zero-length packets).

This represented an invalid hardware configuration which the driver could
not handle.
