But VFs do support VLAN stripping and u don't add it to just RSS. If VFs 
do not support VLAN stripping in the DPDK yet they should and then we 
will need this field.

I understood the motivation at the first place but as I've explained 
above we already bring the garbage for some opcodes like API 
negotiation. So, u should either fix it for all opcodes like u did for 
GET_QUEUES or just drop it in GET_QUEUES and fix it for all opcodes in a 
different patch.
