ixgbe: Store VXLAN port number in network order
The VXLAN port number should be stored in network order instead of in host
order as it is accessed from the hot-path in ATR. This way we can avoid
having to do any byte swaps in order to validate the port number.
I moved the vxlan_port value into a hole in the read-mostly region of the
adapter struct. This way it should be in a warm cache-line instead of in
some isolated region in memory when it needs to be accessed.
In addition I went through and stripped a bunch of unneeded ifdef flags
since having an extra variable present doesn't really hurt anything and
makes the code easier to read. I also went through and dropped the
NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag which was being set in hw_encap_features but provides
no value as the flag is not evaluated in the Rx path.
