I am running ixgbe code from 8.1, and IXGBE_FDIR isn't defined, so is
the following doing something to take away some Rx memory:

        if (adapter->msix > 1) {
                /* Enable Enhanced MSIX mode */
                gpie |= IXGBE_GPIE_MSIX_MODE;
                gpie |= IXGBE_GPIE_EIAME | IXGBE_GPIE_PBA_SUPPORT |
                    IXGBE_GPIE_OCD;
        }
