This parameter as specific to SW only driver. So future something
added from HW only driver item then it won't work
for SW driver. So we need capability per adapter.

So,  I would suggest following theme across _all_ adapters.

1) Introduce RTE_EVENT_ETH_RX_ADAPTER_CAP_RUNTIME_XYZ and associate
each parameter(the one we think, it is not common for all adapters)
2) Add some reserved fields in rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_params
so that we don't break ABI in future
3) Add rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_params_init() function just
make structure fill with default to avoid ABI break
4) Add rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_params_info_get(). Lets
capability flags and other items can be return via this
5) Change rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_set_params as
rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_set()  or
rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_params_set() to make it runtime
explicit
6) Change rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_get_params as
rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_get() or
rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_runtime_params_get()  to make it runtime
explicit
