Extend the iavf driver to support Receive Side Scaling (RSS)
configuration for GTP (GPRS Tunneling Protocol) flows using ethtool.
The implementation introduces new RSS flow segment headers and hash field
definitions for various GTP encapsulations, including:
- GTPC
- GTPU (IP, Extension Header, Uplink, Downlink)
- TEID-based hashing
The ethtool interface is updated to parse and apply these new flow types
and hash fields, enabling fine-grained traffic distribution for GTP-based
mobile workloads.
This enhancement improves performance and scalability for virtualized
network functions (VNFs) and user plane functions (UPFs) in 5G and LTE
deployments.

Allow the user to set the symmetric Toeplitz hash function via:
# ethtool -X eth0 hfunc toeplitz symmetric-xor
The driver will reject any new RSS configuration if a field other than
(IP src/dst and L4 src/dst ports) is requested for hashing.
The symmetric RSS will not be supported on PFs not advertising the ADV RSS
Offload flag (ADV_RSS_SUPPORT()), for example the E700 series (i40e).

Provide the ability to enable SCTP RSS hashing by ethtool.
It gives users option of generating RSS hash based on the SCTP source
and destination ports numbers, IPv4 or IPv6 source and destination
addresses.
