Bug Description

Brief Description
-----------------
The legacy ice driver was upgraded from v1.5.8 to v1.5.8.2 to fix
Bug-2016445. The fixed issue is a memory corruption bug that affects
use cases involving the ice driver and virtual function (VF)
interface reset operations, to the best of our current knowledge.

Despite efforts to validate ice driver v1.5.8.2, concerns remained that
the upgrade might negatively affect deployed systems. Hence, this commit
downgrades the legacy ice driver from v1.5.8.2 back to v1.5.8.
