ixgbe: DCB, fix TX hang occurring in stress condition with PFC
The DCB credits refill quantum _must_ be greater than half the max
packet size. This is needed to guarantee that TX DMA operations
are not attempted during a pause state. Additionally, the min IFG
must be set correctly for DCB mode. If a DMA operation is
requested unexpectedly during the pause state the HW data
store may be corrupted leading to a DMA hang. The DMA hang
requires a reset to correct. This fixes the HW configuration
to avoid this condition.
