Subject: [net PATCH] octeontx2-pf: Fix ntuple rule creation to direct packet to VF with higher Rx queue than its PF

It is possible to add a ntuple rule which would like to direct packet to
a VF whose number of queues are greater/less than its PF's queue numbers.
For example a PF can have 2 Rx queues but a VF created on that PF can have
8 Rx queues. As of today, ntuple rule will reject rule because it is
checking the requested queue number against PF's number of Rx queues.
As a part of this fix if the action of a ntuple rule is to move a packet
to a VF's queue then the check is removed. Also, a debug information is
printed to aware user that it is user's responsibility to cross check if
the requested queue number on that VF is a valid one.

Fixes: f0a1913f8a6f ("octeontx2-pf: Add support for ethtool ntuple filters")

Let's just add this condition to the next if, no need for goto.

[Suman] I kept it a separate check to make the code more readable. Otherwise the next if condition will be complicated.

Readability is subjective, but, FWIIW, I'd also prefer
to avoid a goto here.

[Suman] Okay. Since both of you are suggesting the same change, I will update the same in v2.
