Hi Eric!

I confirmed that the fix you provided worked for our environment. Unfortunately
struct mbuf lacks some of the fields we have in it so it doesn't work with
FreeBSD proper. I believe this patch would work for CURRENT, based on my basic
C program:

$ clang -Wall -Wno-c++1z-extensions -std=c11 -o ~/test_ixgbe_defines
~/test_ixgbe_defines.c
$ cat ~/test_ixgbe_defines.c 
#include <sys/cdefs.h>
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <sys/mbuf.h>
#include <assert.h>

#ifndef offsetof
#define offsetof        __offsetof
#endif

#define IXGBE_RX_COPY_HDR_PADDED        ((((MPKTHSIZE - 1) / 32) + 1) * 32)
#define IXGBE_RX_COPY_LEN       (MSIZE - IXGBE_RX_COPY_HDR_PADDED)
#define IXGBE_RX_COPY_ALIGN     (IXGBE_RX_COPY_HDR_PADDED - MPKTHSIZE)

static_assert(IXGBE_RX_COPY_LEN == 160);
static_assert(IXGBE_RX_COPY_ALIGN == (MHLEN - IXGBE_RX_COPY_LEN));

int
main(void)
{

        return (0);
}

I'm going to try this out internally, but could you and Adrian (or Randall,
because Netflix runs CURRENT-ish and I believe uses ixgbe in some cases) please
look at this as well to make sure that it works accordingly?
