doc: document Direct Verbs flow engine limitation
Checks
Commit Message
Would be good to add also a code which disable the dv_flow_en
the user requested. However such support will need to use new netlink
command to query the switchdev mode from the underlying kernel.
Considering the current 18.11 release is close to RC3, only a
documentation is added.
