a4d3c54024 ixgb: combine more rx descriptors to improve performance
We experimented with more descriptor buffer writebacks and found that
values larger than 8 give HW problems, but 8 is safe and gives us some
improved performance.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
