From: Suanming Mou
> Metadata suffix subflow inherits the RSS needed hash_fields from the prefix
> subflow as the suffix subflow only has the tag match item unable to generate
> the full original hash_fields for RSS action.
> 
> Unfortunately, hash_fields will only be generated if flow has RSS action.
> So it means the prefix flow won't generate the hash_fields as the RSS action
> has been split to the suffix flow.
> 
> Copy the layer flags from prefix subflow to suffix subflow to help the suffix
> subflow to generate the correct hash_fields itself.
