Changed commit log, fixed wrong headline format and removed offload extra word to keep title shorter.

> MLX5 PMD implicitly adds vxlan_decap flow action to tunnel offload
> match type rules. However, VXLAN decap action on VF representors is
> not supported on MLX5 PMD hardware.
> 
> The patch rejects attempt to create tunnel offload flow rules on VF
> representor.
