You can make it work by enabling the IXGBE_LEGACY_TX path in the driver
(although unlikely at 10G speeds). Same issue exists with the igb drivers
(IGB_LEGACY_TX).

Really there should be tunables for enabling the LEGAXY_TX paths. Currently
you have to modify the driver or include IXGBE_LEGACY_TX as a build option
before building the kernel and/or driver module (easier said than done).

Here are some existing PRs and patches related to the problem.
