[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix RSS action validation of queue idx

[Dekel Peled]

RSS action validation function checks the queues included in RSS
to make sure they are valid.
A Queue is considered valid if the pointer to the queue (item at
location queue-index of RxQ array) is not a null value.
The queue indices are not checked. If a large value is entered as
queue index, using it as an index in RxQ array will result in a
pointer to memory out of array bounds. If this memory contains a
value which is not null, this queue will be wrongly considered valid.

This patch updates function mlx5_flow_validate_action_rss() with
check of the input queue indices, as done in function
mlx5_flow_validate_action_queue().

Fixes: 23c1d42c7138 ("net/mlx5: split flow validation to dedicated function")
