Due to a limitation on driver/FW, priority ranges from 1 to 16 in kernel.
Priority in rte_flow attribute starts from 0 and is added by 1 in
translation. This is subject to be changed to determine the max priority
based on trial-and-error like Verbs driver once the restriction is lifted
or the range is extended.
