[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 08/26] ixgbe/base: reduce I2C retry count on X550 devices

A retry count of 10 is likely to run into problems on X550 devices
that have to detect and reset unresponsive CS4227 devices. So,
reduce the I2C retry count to 3 for X550 and above. This should
avoid any possible regressions in existing devices.
