For the multiple hardware ports connect to a single DPDK port (mhpsdp),
currently there is no information to indicate the packet belongs to
which hardware port.
This patch introduces a new port affinity item in rte flow API, and
the port affinity value reflects the physical port affinity of the
received packets.
While uses the port affinity as a matching item in the flow, and sets the
same affinity on the tx queue, then the packet can be sent from the same
hardware port with received.
This patch also adds the testpmd command line to match the new item:
flow create 0 ingress group 0 pattern port_affinity affinity is 1 /
end actions queue index 0 / end
The above command means that creates a flow on a single DPDK port and
matches the packet from the first physical port (assumes the affinity 1
stands for the first port) and redirects these packets into RxQ 0.
