ethtool: Explicitly state that RX NFC rule locations are priorities
The location of an RX flow classification rule is needed to identify it for retrieval, replacement or deletion. However it also defines the priority of the rule in the case that a flow is matched by multiple rules. This is what I intended to imply by referring to the use of a TCAM, commonly used to implement that behaviour. However there are other ways this can be done, and it is better to specify this explicitly. Further, I want to add the option for automatic selection of rule locations.
