Can we use QGRP as a prefix to indicate that these are per-queue group parameters
and not restricted to RSS related parameters?

   QGRP_CONTEXT
   QGRP_RSS_HFUNC
   QGRP_RSS_KEY
   QGRP_RSS_INDIR_TABLE

In future, we would like to add per-queue group parameters like
   QGRP_INLINE_FLOW_STEERING (Round robin flow steering of TCP flows)

Thanks
Sridhar
