[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix non-template API actions template validation

[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix non-template API actions template validation

[Gregory Etelson]

HWS actions template validation checks actions parameters in actions
masks.
Non-template API does not have actions masks.
Actions templates in the non-template API are artificial and
created internally by the PMD.

The patch removes HWS actions template validation in non-template
setup.

Fixes: 04a4de756e14 ("net/mlx5: support flow age action with HWS")
