last_rss_i is cryptic; please, consider last_rss_indices (or similar)

You can avoid the top-of-loop equality test by using modulo, which reads easier, like:
for (i = 0, j = 0; i < reta_entries; i++, j++)
    adapter->rss_indir_tbl[i] = j % rss_i;

Magic number. Can you #define IXGBE_VFRETA_ENTRIES 64 ?
