The added comment is not valid for asynchronously processed packets which are also
allowed in the inline operating mode. So maybe the inline-specific comment should
be reformulated or located elsewhere.

So for asynchronously processed packets this proposal removes the possibility
of ODP distributing the packets decapsulated from one fat tunnel to multiple
queues for better parallelism.

So where do the inline processed packets end up? After this patch the
API would not say it.

There is no explanation on what this virtual pktio is for and how it
can be used.

Input queues (pktins) of the inbound pktio, applying hashing
configured on that pktio.... I guess.

There is no explanation on what this virtual pktio is for and how it can be used.
