From: Matthew Vick <matthew.vick@intel.com>

Previously, IPv6 extension header parsing was disabled for all devices
supported by e1000e when using packet split mode. However, as per a
silicon errata, only certain devices need this restriction and will need
to disable IPv6 extension header parsing for all modes.
