idpf: enable WB_ON_ITR

Tell hardware to write back completed descriptors even when interrupts
are disabled. Otherwise, descriptors might not be written back until
the hardware can flush a full cacheline of descriptors. This can cause
unnecessary delays when traffic is light (or even trigger Tx queue
timeout).

The example scenario to reproduce the Tx timeout if the fix is not
applied:
  - configure at least 2 Tx queues to be assigned to the same q_vector,
  - generate a huge Tx traffic on the first Tx queue
  - try to send a few packets using the second Tx queue.
In such a case Tx timeout will appear on the second Tx queue because no
completion descriptors are written back for that queue while interrupts
are disabled due to NAPI polling.

Fixes: a5ab9ee0df0b ("idpf: add singleq start_xmit and napi poll")
