ixgbe: Let the Rx buffer allocation clear status bits instead of cleanup
This change makes it so that we always clear the status/error bits in the Rx descriptor in the allocation path instead of the cleanup path. The advantage to this is that we spend less time modifying data. As such we can modify the data once and then let it go cold in the cache instead of writing it, reading it, and then writing it again.
