v2: indentation fix

Realizing when submitting new bbdev operation in this patch
(https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=22111) that this is not workable in practice to extend this API into 22.07 without fundamental ABI breakage even by using existing versionning framework.
Some existing learnings to be applied here to prevent extension being blocked, hence accouncing changes in bbdev intended for 22.11 to make this more future-proof, including dropping max value from enum, as well as deferring extension of the API for FFT operation into DPDK 22.11.

Let me know if any comments or in case this should be captured differently.
Thanks
Nic
