Or perhaps I'm misunderstanding this capability flag.

I thought it indicated RSS ability, i.e. multi-queue, effectively shadowing 
rte_eth_conf.rxmode.mq_mode RTE_ETH_MQ_RX_RSS_FLAG.
But maybe it doesn't. Maybe it indicates the ability to store the RSS hash 
value in the mbuf.

The RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH flag is completely undocumented.

Can someone please clarify?
