ixgbe: initialize interrupt throttle rate
This commit dropped the setting of the default interrupt throttle rate. commit 021230d40ae0e6508d6c717b6e0d6d81cd77ac25 Author: Ayyappan Veeraiyan <ayyappan.veeraiyan@intel.com> Date: Mon Mar 3 15:03:45 2008 -0800 ixgbe: Introduce MSI-X queue vector code The following patch adds it back. Without this the default value of 0 causes the performance of this card to be awful. Restoring these to the default values yields much better performance. This regression has been around since 2.6.25.
