[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] mlx5: fix wrong hash RX queue type in RSS mode

Only seen since IPv6 RSS support was added, confusion about the purpose of
the hash_rxq_type_from_n() function has caused it to return invalid hash RX
queue types.

Refactor function for its intended purpose, rename it
hash_rxq_type_from_pos() and update comment with a better description.

Fixes: a76133214d88 ("mlx5: use separate indirection table for default hash Rx queue")
