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 hardware port item in rte flow API, and the port value reflects the hardware port of the received packets. This patch adds the tx_mhpsdp_hwport setting in Tx queue API, the hwport value reflects packets be sent to which hardware port. While uses the hw port as a matching item in the flow, and sets the same port value on the tx queue, then the packet can be sent from the same hardware port with received.
