From: Ophir Munk <ophi...@mellanox.com>

When creating an RSS rule without specifying a key (see [1]) it is
expected that the device will use the default key.
A NULL key is used to indicate to a PMD it should use
its default key, however testpmd assigns a non-NULL dummy key
(see [2]) instead.
This does not enable testing any PMD behavior when the RSS key is not
specified. This commit fixes this limitation by setting key to NULL.
Also, it fixes the Scenario [3] that enable default RSS action by
setting key=NULL and key_len!=0.
[1]
RSS rule example without specifying a key:
flow create 0 ingress <pattern> / end actions rss queues 0 1 end / end
[2]
Testpmd default key assignment:
.key= "testpmd's default RSS hash key, "
"override it for better balancing"
[3]
flow create 0 <pattern> actions rss queues 0 1 end key_len 40 / end
