John Fastabend 32701dc2e6 ixgbe: fixup hard dependencies on supporting 8 traffic classes
This patch correctly configures DCB when less than 8 traffic classes
are available in hardware.

John Fastabend 9da712d2ed ixgbe: update {P}FC thresholds to account for X540 and loopback
Revise high and low threshold marks wrt flow control to account
for the X540 devices and latency introduced by the loopback
switch.

Without this it was in theory possible to drop frames on a
supposedly lossless link with X540 or SR-IOV enabled.

Previously we used a magic number in a define to calculate the
threshold values. This made it difficult to sort out exactly
which latencies were or were not being accounted for. Here
I was overly explicit and tried to used #define names that would
be recognizable after reading the IEEE 802.1Qbb specification.

John Fastabend 4c09f3a067 ixgbe: DCB, do not call set_state() from IEEE mode
The DCB CEE command set_state() will complete successfully
but is misleading because it enables IEEE mode. After
this patch the command is failed.

And IEEE PFC/ETS is managed from ieee paths now instead
of using CEE primitives.
