  There is an error in queue index check for RSS queue region
configuration.If the queue index is not continuous sequence
for RSS, but queue region index is continuous sequence, in
this case we can not use the old method for queue index check.
This patch also add comment for flow rss parse function in order
to explain some important info.

Fixes: ecad87d22383 ("net/i40e: move RSS to flow API")
Signed-off-by: Wei Zhao <wei.zhao1@intel.com>
Tested-by: Peng Yuan <yuan.peng@intel.com>

---

v2:
-merge this with another patch for function comment, add git log info.

Is this a code clean?
I didn't see anything wrong with the code you removed, but they just looks redundant.
Btw why you still check (rss_info->num < rss->num) ?, 
previous, I think you already iterate all rss queue to make sure they are matched by a rss_info queue
so it already proved rss_info->num >= rss->num.

what you said is reasonable, so I will commit v3 To delete this (rss_info->num < rss->num) check.

After thinking it over, I think we had better keep this check for (rss_info->num < rss->num)
because customer may input a wrong number for this parameter, although queue index maybe rightly
match rss span. So, v3 may be not need.

If rss->num > rss_info->num, it should already failed in below code, so I still think it's no necessary.

			/* each rss queue must match a rss_info queue */
			for (i = 0; i < rss->num; i++) {
                        for (j = 0; j < rss_info->num; j++) {
                                if (rss->queue[i] == rss_info->queue[j])
                                        break;
                        }
                        if (j == rss_info->num) {
                                rte_flow_error_set(error, EINVAL,
                                        RTE_FLOW_ERROR_TYPE_ACTION,
                                        act,
                                        "no valid queues");
                                return -rte_errno;
                        }
                }
				
				/* rss queue must be continues */
                for (i = 0; i < rss->num - 1; i++) {
                        if (rss->queue[i + 1] != rss->queue[i] + 1) {
                                rte_flow_error_set(error, EINVAL,
