RSS is one of the most valuable features in the
driver, and one would hardly need to disable it
at build time. This patch withdraws unnecessary
conditionals for RSS snippets.

To filter all traffic, need to create two hardware filter specifications
with both unknown unicast and unknown multicast destination MAC address
match flags.
In terms of RTE flow API, this would require adding multiple flow rules
with corresponding ETH items. In order to avoid such a complication, the
patch implements a mechanism to auto-complete an underlying filter
representation of a flow rule in order to create additional filter
specifications featuring the missing match flags.

Knowledge of a network identifier is not sufficient to construct a
workable hardware filter for encapsulated traffic. It's obligatory to
specify one of the match flags associated with inner frame destination
MAC. If the address is unknown, then one needs to specify either unknown
unicast or unknown multicast destination match flag.
In terms of RTE flow API, this would require adding multiple flow rules
with corresponding ETH items besides the tunnel item. In order to avoid
such a complication, the patch implements a mechanism to auto-complete
an underlying filter representation of a flow rule in order to create
additional filter specifications featuring the missing match flags.

Hardware filter specification for encapsulated traffic must contain
EtherType. In terms of RTE flow API, this would require L3 item to be
used in the flow rule. In the simplest case, if the user needs to filter
encapsulated traffic without knowledge of exact EtherType, they will
have to create multiple variants of the flow rule featuring all possible
L3 items (IPv4, IPv6), respectively. In order to hide the gory details
and avoid such a complication, this patch implements a mechanism to
auto-complete the filter specifications if need be.

Not all flow rules can be expressed in one hardware filter, so some flow
rules have to be expressed in terms of multiple hardware filters. This
patch provides a means to produce a filter spec template from the flow
rule which then can be used to produce a set of fully elaborated specs
to be inserted.
