So I was sent a link to the datasheet for the part and I have a
working theory that what we may be seeing is a problem in the firmware
for the part.

Can you try applying the attached patch and send the output from the
dmesg? Specifically I would want anything with the name "i40e" in it.
What I am looking for is something like the following:

With that we can tell what flow types are enabled, and what input
fields are enabled for each flow type. My suspicion is that we may see
the two new types added to X722 for UDP, 29 and 30, may not match type
31 which is the current flow type supported on the X710.

I have included a copy inline below in case the patch is stripped,
however I suspect it will not apply cleanly as the mail client I am
using usually ends up causing white space mangling by replacing tabs
with spaces.
