        src/sys/dev/pci/ixgbe: ix_txrx.c

Log Message:
Added BUS_DMA_COHERENT flag to bus_dmamem_map() to improve stability on aarch64.

In ixgbe, TX/RX descriptor rings are configured in 16-byte units.
If BUS_DMA_COHERENT is not specified, cpu cache (writeback/invalidate)
operations by bus_dmamap_sync() in aarch64 (arm/arm32/bus_dma.c) are done per
cache line size (usually 64 bytes). As a result, adjacent descriptors conflict
with the DMA operation, resulting in unstable operation.

To avoid this, descriptors area should be mapped as non-cache with 
BUS_DMA_COHERENT.

thanks to msaitoh@ for his help in debugging.
