Browse Source 
This commit dropped the setting of the default interrupt throttle rate.

    ixgbe: Introduce MSI-X queue vector code

The following patch adds it back.  Without this the default value of 0
causes the performance of this card to be awful.  Restoring these to the
default values yields much better performance.

This regression has been around since 2.6.25.
