There are PMDs which do not support flow offloads at all.
In such cases, the API in question returns ENOTSUP. This
is too loud. Restructure the code to avoid spamming logs.

First of all I think that the patch is wrong and origin code is better.
If flow API is not supported at all (ops == NULL), what's the point
to return some proxy port?

                *proxy_port_id = port_id;
                return 0;
        }


IMHO, spamming of testpmd logs in described case should be fixed
in testpmd itself to avoid logs in the case of ENOTSUP. That's it.
