[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/mlx5: Allow configuring mlx5 port for TX only

[Mohsin Shaikh]

Configuring mlx5 port with 0 rx rings and 1 or more tx rings causes
following error in dev_start:
    net_mlx5: port 1 cannot allocate RSS queue list (0)
    net_mlx5: port 1 reta config failed: Cannot allocate memory
Skip mlx5_dev_configure_rss_reta() when there are no rx rings.
