Sorry, too short description. I could be an existing practice
to add more RSS offload types, but I want to break it.
Please, add motivation in the description why it is useful etc.

Please, add a comment what does it mean in various cases
covering various L3 protocols. IMHO, we must be explicit
here since addition of a new L3 protocol will make it
ambiguous if some drivers/HW use its checksum, but some
do not.

Hi Rybchenko,

Thanks for your review.
We will add more descriptions and update testpmd app in V2.
