ConnectX-4 adapters do not have a constant indirection table size, which is
set at runtime from the number of RX queues. The maximum size is retrieved
using a hardware query and is normally 512.
Since the current RETA API cannot handle a variable size, any query/update
command causes it to be silently updated to RSS_INDIRECTION_TABLE_SIZE
entries regardless of the original size.
Also due to the underlying type of the configuration structure, the maximum
size is limited to RSS_INDIRECTION_TABLE_SIZE (currently 128, at most 256
entries).
A port stop/start must be done to apply the new RETA configuration.

DPDK expects to have an RSS hash key per flow type (IPv4, IPv6, UDPv4,
etc.), to handle this the PMD must keep a table of hash keys to be able
to reconfigure the queues at each start/stop call.

First implementation of rss_hash_update and rss_hash_conf_get, those
functions still lack in functionality but are usable to change the RSS
hash key. For now, the PMD does not handle an indirection table for
each kind of flow (IPv4, IPv6, etc.), the same RSS hash key is used
for all protocols. This situation explains why the rss_hash_conf_get
returns the RSS hash key for all DPDK supported protocols and why the
hash key is set for all of them too.

Use the maximum size of the indirection table when the number of requested
RX queues is not a power of two, this help to improve RSS balancing.
A message informs users that balancing is not optimal in such cases.

The default hash RX queue handles packets that are not matched by more
specific types and requires its own indirection table of size 1 to work
properly.
This commit implements support for multiple indirection tables by grouping
their layout and properties in a static initialization table.

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).

Removing this structure reduces the size of SG and non-SG RX queue elements
significantly to improve performance.
An nice side effect is that the mbuf pointer is now fully stored in
struct rxq_elt instead of relying on the WR ID data offset hack.

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.
