+flow_steering_mode     [DEVICE, DRIVER-SPECIFIC]
+                       Controls the flow steering mode of the driver.
+                       Two modes are supported:
+                       1. 'dmfs' - Device managed flow steering.
+                       2. 'smfs  - Software/Driver managed flow steering.
+                       In DMFS mode, the HW steering entities are created and
+                       managed through the Firmware.
+                       In SMFS mode, the HW steering entities are created and
+                       managed though by the driver directly into Hardware
+                       without firmware intervention.
