[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1 5/5] net/mlx4: restore inner VXLAN RSS support

Inner VXLAN RSS was supported and performed by default prior to the entire
mlx4 refactoring that occurred in DPDK 17.11, however so far the new Verbs
RSS API did not provide means to enable it. This will be addressed in
Linux 4.15 and in RDMA core.

Thanks to RSS capabilities, the PMD can now probe for its support and
enable it again by default.
