Agree.

My concern was not to change the existing RTE_ETH_DEV_SWITCH_DOMAIN_ID_INVALID
definition, which currently is zero. Currently, AFAIK, the switch feature is supported by mlx5
only, other PMDs do not bother to initialize the rte_eth_dev_info-> switch_info structure
(no one sets RTE_ETH_DEV_SWITCH_DOMAIN_ID_INVALID to domain_id field for now).
So, changing the RTE_ETH_DEV_SWITCH_DOMAIN_ID_INVALID from zero might cause
wrong switch capability reporting from PMDs.

I do not know why it was implemented in this way 😊
I just was trying to introduce the minimalistic fix. I'll think how to extend my fix a bit.
