Generally an RX packet flows through the following objects: Flow table --> TIR --> RQT --> RQ Where: - TIR stands for "Transport Interface Receive", defining the RSS and LRO paramaters. - RQT stands for "RQ Table", implementing the RSS indirection table. - RQ stands for "Receive Queue" For flows that do not need LRO, nor RSS, the driver made a shortcut to the above RX flow by pointing to the RQ directly from the TIR, yielding this flow: Flow table --> TIR --> RQ In this commit we remove this shortcut by "inserting" a single-RQ RQT between the TIR and the RQ, i.e RX packets will reach the same RQ but will go through an RQT of size 1, pointing to just a single RQ. This way the RX traffic re-direction to/from the "Drop RQ" will be more uniform (AKA "one flow"), as it will involve only RQTs re-direction and no TIRs re-direction.
