Introduce state-based algorithm to convert the flow_key value to RSS algo field used by NIX_AF_RX_FLOW_KEY_ALGX_FIELDX register. The outer `for loop` goes over _all_ protocol field and the following variables depict the state machine forward progress logic. a) keyoff_marker - Enabled when hash byte length needs to be accounted in field->key_offset update. b) field_marker - Enabled when a new field needs to be selected. c) group_member - Enabled when a protocol is part of a group. This would remove the existing hard coding and enable to add new protocol support seamlessly.

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.
