> Subject: [PATCH] net/i40e: do not turn on flexible payload on driver init
>
> Function i40e_GLQF_reg_init() overwrites global register for flexible payload,
> forcing extraction of first 16 bytes of L2/L3/L4 payload to the field vector
> even if flexible payload is not used by an application. Such unconditional
> turn
> on of flexible payload effectively disables ability to use outer IP
> Destination
> address for RSS/FDIR for tunnelled packets, as flexible payload overwrites
> outer IP destination address on the field vector.
>
> Now flexible payload turned on only when flow director is enabled and
> configured.

In this case, the global registers will be set when enabling flow director, but
it won't
be reset to default value unless core reset. So need an alternative mechanism to
configure the global registers.
