[PATCH 1/1] ixgbe: write flush vfta registers

[zyjzyj2000@gmail.com]

From: Zhu Yanjun <zyjzyj2000@gmail.com>

Sometimes vfta registers can not be written successfully in dcb mode.
This is very occassional. When the ixgbe nic runs for a very long time,
sometimes this bug occurs. But after IXGBE_WRITE_FLUSH is executed,
this bug never occurs.
