[PATCH 1/3] doc/hns3: fix compilation option about max queue number

[Huisong Li]

This patch fixes the description of compilation option about setting max
queue number. The maximum queue number of HIP09 and HIP10 is determined by
the RTE_LIBRTE_HNS3_MAX_TQP_NUM_PER_PF and the value the firmware report.

[PATCH 3/3] doc/hns3: fix the usage description for RSS flow

[Huisong Li]

The hns3 driver supports for creating rule base on input tuple, hash key,
queues and hash algorithm. But hash key, queues and hash algorithm are the
global configuration for hardware which will affect other rules. The rule
just setting input tuple is completely independent.

Hi Huisong,

Can you please add fixes tag for each feature, to let track the relevant
code commit with claimed feature support?

Thanks for your advice.
Put fixes tag of each feature commit in the commit log of this patch, right?
Do we need to Cc stable?

Like for "Basic stats", add commit that introduces basic stats as fixes
line, same for each feature added above.

For this case, main purpose for above fixes tags is to provide back
trace from document to the code,
but adding 'stable' tag enables backporting this document patch to LTS
release, which doesn't hurt, so please add stable tag too.
