[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 2/5] app/testpmd: fix RSS key length

[Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>]

port_rss_hash_key_update() initializes rss_conf with the
RSS key configuration provided  by the user, but it calls
rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_conf_get() before calling
rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_update(), which overrides the parsed
RSS config.

While the RSS key value is set again after, this is not
the case of the key length. It could cause out of bounds
access if the key length parsed is smaller than the one
read from rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_conf_get().

This patch restores the key length before the
rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_update() call to ensure the RSS key
value/length pair is consistent.
