This patch adds the support of "RSS (Receive Side Scaling)" feature provided by the Hip06 ethernet hardware to the HNS ethernet driver. This feature helps in distributing the different flows (mapped as hash by hardware using Toeplitz Hash) to different Queues asssociated with the processor cores. The mapping of flow-hash values to the different queues is stored in indirection table (which is per Packet- parse-Engine/PPE). This patch also provides the changes to re-program the (flow-hash<->Qid) mapping using the ethtool.
