ixgbe: further flow director performance optimizations
This change adds a compressed input type for atr signature hash
computation. It also drops the use of the set functions when setting up
the ATR input since we can then directly setup the hash input as two dwords
that can be stored and passed as registers.
With these changes the cost of computing the has is low enough that we can
perform a hash computation on each TCP SYN flagged packet allowing us to
drop the number of flow director misses considerably in tests such as
netperf TCP_CRR.
