ixgbe: prevent from unwanted interface name changes
Users of the ixgbe driver report that after adding devlink
support by the commit a0285236ab93 ("ixgbe: add initial devlink support")
their configs got broken due to unwanted changes of interfaces names.
It's caused by changing names by devlink port initialization flow.
To prevent from that set skip_phys_port_name_get flag for ixgbe
devlink ports.
