We observe performance drop on ice AVX512 data path after stop and
start by using testpmd.

As CPU polling is faster in AVX512 path, L3 contested accesses is
intensified when rxrearm_start is a random value after testpmd
stop/start.

Enlarge ICE_RXQ_REARM_THRESH to 64 to ease the contested accesses and
fix the performance drop issue.
