Ethtool ntuple filters with FLOW_RSS were originally defined as adding
the base queue ID (ring_cookie) to the value from the indirection table,
so that the same table could distribute over more than one set of queues
when used by different filters.
However, some drivers / hardware ignore the ring_cookie, and simply use
the indirection table entries as queue IDs directly. Thus, for drivers
which have not opted in by setting ethtool_ops.cap_rss_rxnfc_adds to
declare that they support the original (addition) semantics, reject in
ethtool_set_rxnfc any filter which combines FLOW_RSS and a nonzero ring.
(For a ring_cookie of zero, both behaviours are equivalent.)
Set the cap bit in sfc, as it is known to support this feature.
