> 
> Default configuration for MLX5_IPOOL_JUMP ipool specified entry size as size of

> This could lead to memory corruption when mlx5_flow_group struct (used with
> HW steering flow engine) would have bigger size than mlx5_flow_tbl_data_entry.

> This patch fixes that. Entry size for MLX5_IPOOL_JUMP ipool is chosen
