[dpdk-stable] [EXT] [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] compress/mlx5: fix level translation in xform API

[Akhil Goyal]

> Compression Level is interpreted by each PMD differently.
> However, lower numbers give faster compression
> at the expense of compression ratio, while higher numbers
> may give better compression ratios but are likely slower.
> The level affects the block size, which affects performance,
> the bigger the block, the faster the compression is.
> 
> The problem was that higher levels caused bigger blocks:
>   size = min_block_size - 1 + level.
> 
> the solution is to reverse the above:
>   size = max_block_size + 1 - level.
> 
> Fixes: 39a2c8715f8f ("compress/mlx5: add transformation operations")
