NPC transmit side mcam rules can use the pcifunc (in packet metadata
added by hardware) of transmitting device for mcam lookup similar to
the channel of receiving device at receive side.
The commit 18603683d766 ("octeontx2-af: Remove channel verification
while installing MCAM rules") removed the receive side channel
verification to save hardware MCAM filters while switching packets
across interfaces but missed removing transmit side checks.
This patch removes transmit side rules validation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
