I will set this header splitting capability in #ifdef RTE_HEADER_SPLIT_ENABLE
in my next patch set.
I think it is a per queue capability as it can be configured on the register
IXGBE_SRRCTL of every Rx queue
In this code line: IXGBE_WRITE_REG(hw, IXGBE_SRRCTL(rxq->reg_idx), srrctl); in
ixgbe_dev_rx_init( ).
Same case is also in the code line: IXGBE_WRITE_REG(hw, IXGBE_VFSRRCTL(i),
srrctl); in ixgbevf_dev_rx_init( ).

This function is similar to mlx4_check_rx_queue_offloads() in mlx4 driver.
As the git log message in the commit ce17eddefc20285bbfe575bdc07f42f0b20f34cb
say
that a per port capability should has same setting (enabling or disabling) on
both port
configuration via rte_eth_dev_configure( ) and queue configuration via
rte_eth_rx_queue_setup( ).
This function check if this requirement is matched or not.
It also check offloading request is supported as a per port or a per queue
capability or not.
If above checking is pass, it return 1 else return 0.
