[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ixgbe: Fix offloading bits when RX bulk alloc is used.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ixgbe: Fix offloading bits when RX bulk alloc is used.

[Bryan Benson]

This is a fix for the ixgbe hardware offload flags not being set when bulk alloc RX is used. The issue was caused by masking off the bits that store the hardware offload values in the status_error field to retrieve the done bit for the descriptor.

Commit 7431041062b9fd0555bac7ca4abebc99e3379fa5 in DPDK-1.3.0 introduced bulk dequeue, which included the bug.
