I am trying to update the check for MAX if_out value in rules config file
parsing which will be before setup_lpm().
The reason is, restricting and adding only those rules which can be used by the
application
while populating the route_base_v4/v6 at first step and avoid unnecessary
memory allocation
for local variables to store more not required rules.

By looking into this check, it seems restriction to maximum 31 port ID while
parsing rule file becomes
more valid as this check can pass due to overflow in case value of
route_base_v4[i].if_out
Is 31+.
> Another question here - why we just silently skip the rule with invalid port?
In read_config_files_lpm() we are calling the rte_exit in case port ID is 31+.
In setup_lpm, skipping the rules for the ports which are not enabled and not
giving error,
I guess probably because of ease of use.
e.g. user has only single ipv4_routes config file with route rules for port ID
0,1,2,3,4
and want to use same file for multiple test cases like
1. when only port 0 enabled
2. when only port 0 and 1 enabled and so on.
In this case, user can avoid to have separate route files for each of the test
case.
