[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/3] i40e: enable extended tag

[Helin Zhang]

PCIe feature of 'Extended Tag' is important for 40G performance.
It adds its enabling during each port initialization, to ensure
the high performance.

+  It enabled extended tag by checking and writing corresponding PCI config
+  space bytes, to boost the performance. In the meanwhile, it deprecated the
+  legacy way via reading/writing sysfile supported by kernel module of igb_uio.
