Flip use_flowid back to 1 and try setting
net.link.lagg.default_flowid_shift / net.link.lagg.X.flowid_shift to 0
as Hiren suggested.  r260179 added this shift, which has caused us
balancing issues with the i350/igb.

Based on Adrian's comment about igb/ixgbe not setting the 'full
flowid' under normal conditions, does that mean this shift should be 0
by default to ensure we don't break balancing for devices that only
set the CPU/MSIX queue?
