> The logic to select ixgbe VF RX function is different than PF side.
> 
> There are a few issues with its current state:
>  - it does not allow to select ixgbe_recv_pkts_vec among other options.
>  - it can cause memory corruption for scatter mode as it does not allocate
>    enough entries in sw_ring.
>  - when checksum is enabled, incorrect vector RX function is selected.
> 
> To solve above issues, change the VF RX function selection logic to
> mimic PF side.
