  Currently a meter policy's flows are always using the same priority for
all colors, so the red color flow might be before green/yellow ones.
This will impact the performance cause green/yellow packets will check
red flow first and got miss, then match green/yellow flows, introducing
more hops.

This patch fixes this by giving the the same priority to flows for all
colors.

Fixes: 363db9b00f ("net/mlx5: handle yellow case in default meter policy")
