[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v2 10/52] net/ice/base: fix variable type for ACL

[Qi Zhang]

The commit ef92cee94cdb ("ice-shared: Fix remaining minor casting
issues") changed the idx variable within ice_acl_add_entry() from
a u16 to a u8. This causes the code to truncate the values greater
than 255 to 255 or less when calling ice_aq_program_acl_entry()
resulting in the wrong TCAM index being programmed for the specified
rule. The result is that the rule action doesn't work correctly
(packets don't get routed to the correct queue or dropped if that
is the action). Fix the issue by changing the variable to be a u16
again.
