1) ../drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethdev.c:3556:46: warning:
    variable length array used [-Wvla]
2) ../drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethdev.c:3739:23: warning:
    variable length array used [-Wvla]
3) ../drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx_vec_common.h:17:24: warning:
    variable length array used [-Wvla]

For first two cases: in fact ixgbe_xstats_calc_num() always returns
constant value, so it should be safe to replace that function invocation
just with a macro that performs same calculations.

For case #3: reassemble_packets() is invoked only by
ixgbe_recv_scattered_burst_vec().
And in turn, ixgbe_recv_scattered_burst_vec() operates only on fixed
max amount of packets per call: RTE_IXGBE_MAX_RX_BURST.
So, it should be safe to replace VLA with fixed size array.
