Subject: [net-next 6/9] ixgbe: X540 devices RX PFC frames pause traffic even if disabled

From: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@...el.com>

Receiving PFC (priority flow control) frames while the feature
is off should not pause the traffic class. On the X540 devices
the traffic class react to frames if it was previously enabled
because the field is incorrectly cleared.
