I have already made it to global in v3. Hopefully I could send it out by
the end of tomorrow.

Sure. Just want to make it clearn, if it works, should we still keep the
queue index workaround? Or, just remove it?
The second try with a single queue would not be needed.
The first try should always (hopefully) work for RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_RSS
This would need to include all the queues used for the port in question
and the same RSS config we use, which is in netdev-dpdk.
It is a bit more work overall.
