I'm not an expert of VMDq.
Please help reviewing this doc addition.

> + *
> + * Using this feature, packets are routed to a pool of queues. By default,
> the
> + * pool selection is based on the MAC address, the vlan id in the vlan tag as
> + * specified in the pool_map array.
> + * Passing the ETH_VMDQ_ACCEPT_UNTAGGED in the rx_mode field allows pool
> + * selection using only the MAC address. MAC address to pool mapping is done
> + * using the rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_add function, with the pool parameter
> + * corresponding to the pool id.
> + *
> + * Queue selection within the selected pool will be done using RSS when
> + * it is enabled or revert to the first queue of the pool if not.
> + *
> + * A default pool may be used, if desired, to route all traffic which
> + * does not match the vlan filter rules or any pool MAC address.
