This patchset provide RSS hash value for upper stack by indicating
whether it's a L3 or L4 hash. Thus other component of network
stack could utilize this hash value providing by NIC without caculating
by themselves.

Test:
* Simple iperf test using ixgbe for 82599ES
* Build test only for ixgbevf
* make C=1 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__, no warnings introduced by this patchset

Fan Du (2):
  ixgbe: Specify rx hash type wrt rx desc RSS type
  ixgbevf: Set rx hash type for ingress packets
