Looks reasonable to me.

A larger issue though I see in this function is that if we return 
-ENOMEM here, and if we return -ENOMEM from igb_init_interrupt_scheme() 
below on failure, we leak adapter->mac_table (and adapter->shadow_vfta 
in the latter).  We should add a proper unwind to free up the memory on 
failure.
