igb: Disable the BMC-to-OS Watchdog Enable bit for DMAC.
Under certain scenarios, it's possible that bursty manageability traffic over the BMC-to-OS path may overrun the internal manageability receive buffer causing dropped manageability packets. Clearing this bit prevents this situation by interrupting coalescing to allow manageability traffic through.
