[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: update new ethdev offload API description

[Ferruh Yigit]

Don't mandate API to pass port offload configuration during queue setup,
this is unnecessary for devices that support only port level offloads.

Btw, this expectation from API should be clear from source code and API
documentation (doxygen comments in header file) instead of
documentation. Am I missing something or we are doing something wrong
here?

 Offloads are enabled using the existing ``DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_*`` or ``DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_*`` flags.
 Per-port offload configuration is set using ``rte_eth_dev_configure``.
 Per-queue offload configuration is set using ``rte_eth_rx_queue_setup`` and ``rte_eth_tx_queue_setup``.
-To enable per-port offload, the offload should be set on both device configuration and queue setup.
-In case of a mixed configuration the queue setup shall return with an error.
-To enable per-queue offload, the offload can be set only on the queue setup.
+Per-port offloads should be set on the port configuration. Queue offloads should be set on the queue configuration.
 Offloads which are not enabled are disabled by default.
 
 For an application to use the Tx offloads API it should set the ``ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_IGNORE`` flag in the ``txq_flags`` field located in ``rte_eth_txconf`` struct.
