[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/ixgbe: ensure link status is updated

[Laurent Hardy <laurent.hardy@6wind.com>]

In case of link speed set to 1Gb at peer side (with autoneg or with
defined speed) and cable not plugged-in when device is configured
and started, then link status is not updated properly with new speed
as no link setup is triggered.

To avoid this issue, IXGBE_FLAG_NEED_LINK_CONFIG is set to try a link
setup each time link_update() is triggered and current link status is
down. When cable is plugged-in, link setup will be performed via
ixgbe_setup_link().
