nit: Do we still need this with an extra argument?
Yes, unfortunately (compiler optimizes out enum xdp_rss_type_bits).
Do notice the difference xdp_rss_type_bits vs xdp_rss_hash_type.
We don't need it for "xdp_rss_hash_type" but need it for
"xdp_rss_type_bits".

Ah, I missed that. Then why not expose xdp_rss_type_bits?
Keep xdp_rss_hash_type for internal drivers' tables, and export the
enum with the bits?
Great suggestion, xdp_rss_hash_type will be internal for drivers.
I will do that in V4.
