OK, we are going to do modification to add check if PMD support 
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH before setting it as below:

  @@ -3356,11 +3356,13 @@ init_port_config(void)

                    port->dev_conf.rxmode.mq_mode =
                        (enum rte_eth_rx_mq_mode)
                            (rx_mq_mode & ETH_MQ_RX_RSS);
  		  if (port->dev_info.rx_offload_capa &
		      DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH)
  			port->dev_conf.rxmode.offloads |=

                    port->dev_conf.rxmode.mq_mode = ETH_MQ_RX_NONE;
            }
