[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/i40e: do not turn on flexible payload on driver init

[Kirill Rybalchenko <kirill.rybalchenko@intel.com>]

Function i40e_GLQF_reg_init() overwrites global register for
flexible payload, forcing extraction of first 16 bytes of L2/L3/L4
payload to the field vector even if flexible payload is not used by
an application. Such unconditional turn on of flexible payload
effectively disables ability to use outer IP Destination address
for RSS/FDIR for tunnelled packets, as flexible payload
overwrites outer IP destination address on the field vector.

Now flexible payload turned on only when flow director is
enabled and configured.
