net/mlx5e: Use CQE padding for Ethernet CQs
Writing 64B CQEs to 128B cache lines results in a RMW operation. Padding the CQEs to 128B if possible improves performance on 128B cache line systems like PPC. Testing on PPC showed up to a 24% improvement in small packet throughput vs the default behavior, depending on the workload and system topology.
