> This example sets up a scenario that VXLAN packets can be received
> by different PF queues based on VNID and each queue is bound to a VM
> with a VNID so that the VM can receive its inner packets.
> 
> Usually, OVS is used to do the software encap/decap for VXLAN packets.
> 
> And the VXLAN packets offloading can be replaced with flow rules in
> testpmd like Chapter "Sample VXLAN flow rules" in Testpmd Application
> User Guide.
> 
> And this example hasn't been used for a long time.
> 
> So deprecate this example.
