Only a single flow per hash RX queue is needed in promiscuous mode.
Disable others to free up hardware resources.

All hash RX QPs currently use the same flow steering rule (L2 MAC filtering)
regardless of their type (TCP, UDP, IPv4, IPv6), which prevents them from
being dispatched properly. This is fixed by adding flow information to the
hash RX queue initialization data and generating specific flow steering
rules for each of them.

The new Verbs RSS API is lower-level than the previous one and much more
flexible but requires RX queues to use Work Queues (WQs) internally instead
of Queue Pairs (QPs), which are grouped in an indirection table used by a
new kind of hash RX QPs.
Hash RX QPs and the indirection table together replace the parent RSS QP
while WQs are mostly similar to child QPs.
RSS hash key is not configurable yet.
Summary of changes:
- Individual DPDK RX queues do not store flow properties anymore, this info
is now part of the hash RX queues.
- All functions affecting the parent queue when RSS is enabled or the basic
queues otherwise are modified to affect hash RX queues instead.
- Hash RX queues are also used when a single DPDK RX queue is configured (no
RSS) to remove that special case.
- Hash RX queues and indirection table are created/destroyed when device
is started/stopped in addition to create/destroy flows.
- Contrary to QPs, WQs are moved to the "ready" state before posting RX
buffers, otherwise they are ignored.
- Resource domain information is added to WQs for better performance.
- CQs are not resized anymore when switching between non-SG and SG modes as
it does not work correctly with WQs. Use the largest possible size
instead, since CQ size does not have to be the same as the number of
elements in the RX queue. This also applies to the maximum number of
outstanding WRs in a WQ (max_recv_wr).

In its current state, this driver implements the bare minimum to initialize
itself and Mellanox ConnectX-4 adapters without doing anything else
(no RX/TX for instance). It is disabled by default since it is based on the
mlx4 driver and also depends on libibverbs.
