Not clear enough, some PMD like MLX5 accept rules starting from the
VXLAN level, the comment "Inner most level according to flow pattern"
does not inform inside which tunnel the RSS will be done as this pattern
does not provide any information related to the position of the tunnel
in the packet.
What are the expectation for such situation?
