We noticed performance issues with VF interface on sparc compared
to PF. Setting the RX to IXGBE_DCA_RXCTRL_DATA_WRO_EN brings it
on far with PF. Also this matches to the default sparc setting in
PF driver.

v2:
  Alexander had concerns about this negativily affecting other architectures.
  Added CONFIG_SPARC check so this should not affect other architectures.
