net/mlx5e: Disable rxhash when CQE compress is enabled
When CQE compression is enabled (Multi-host systems), compressed CQEs might arrive to the driver rx, compressed CQEs don't have a valid hash offload and the driver already reports a hash value of 0 and invalid hash type on the skb for compressed CQEs, but this is not good enough. On a congested PCIe, where CQE compression will kick in aggressively, gro will deliver lots of out of order packets due to the invalid hash and this might cause a serious performance drop. The only valid solution, is to disable rxhash offload at all when CQE compression is favorable (Multi-host systems). Fixes: 7219ab34f184 ("net/mlx5e: CQE compression") Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com>
