[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: fix description of some mlx5 features

[Thomas Monjalon]

From: Asaf Penso <asafp@nvidia.com>

The support of the new RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_INTEGRITY
was added in the release notes 21.02 by mistake.

The support of the Sub-Function representors was missing
in the release notes and the mlx5 guide.

Fixes: 79f8952783d0 ("net/mlx5: support integrity flow item")
Fixes: cb95feefdd03 ("net/mlx5: support sub-function representor")

+Sub-Function is a portion of the PCI device, a SF netdev has its own
 dedicated queues(txq, rxq). A SF netdev supports E-Switch representation
 offload similar to existing PF and VF representors. A SF shares PCI
 level resources with other SFs and/or with its parent PCI function.
