> 
> PMDs should provide supported RSS hash functions via
> dev_info.flow_type_rss_offloads variable.
> 
> There is a check in ethdev if requested RSS hash function is supported by
> PMD or not.
> This check has been relaxed in previous release to not return an error when a
> non supported has function requested [1], this has been done to not break
> the applications.
> 
> Adding the error return back.
> PMDs need to provide correct list of supported hash functions and
> applications need to take care this information before configuring the RSS
> otherwise they will get an error from APIs:
> rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_update()
> rte_eth_dev_configure()

Are the current app/examples in DPDK tree behave accordingly?
