The registration of XDP queue information is incorrect because the RX queue id we use is invalid.
When port->id == 0 it appears to works as expected yet it's no longer the case when port->id != 0.

This is due to the fact that the value we use (rxq->id) is not the per-port queue index which
XDP expects -- it's a global index which should not be used in this case. Instead we shall use
rxq->logic_rxq which is the correct, per-port value.

As we were trying to capture packets using XDP on our mv8040-powered
MacchiatoBin, we experienced an issue related to rx queue numbering.

Before I get to the problem itself, a bit of setup:

* the Macchiato has several ports, all of them handled using the mvpp2
  ethernet driver. We are able to reproduce our issue on any device whose
  port->id != 0 (we used eth2 for our tests). When port->id == 0 (for
  example on eth0) everything works as expected ;

* we use xdp-tutorial for our tests ; more specifically, we used the
  advanced03-AF_XDP tutorial as it provides a simple testbed. We modified
  the kernel to simplify it:

        SEC("xdp_sock")
        int xdp_sock_prog(struct xdp_md *ctx)
        {
                int index = ctx->rx_queue_index;

                /* A set entry here means that the correspnding queue_id
                 * has an active AF_XDP socket bound to it. */
                if (bpf_map_lookup_elem(&xsks_map, &index))
                        return bpf_redirect_map(&xsks_map, index, 0);

                return XDP_PASS;
        }

* we tested kernel 5.10 (out target) and 5.15 (for reference) ; both kernels
  exhibits the same symptoms ; I expect kernel 5.9 (the first linux kernel
  with XDP support in the mvpp2 driver) to exhibit the same problem.

The normal invocation of this program would be:

        ./af_xdp_user -d ETHDEV

We should then capture packets on this interface. When ETHDEV is eth0
(port->id == 0) everything works as expcted ; when using ETHDEV == eth2
we fail to capture anything.

We investigated the issue and found that XDP rx queues (setup as
struct xdp_rxq_info by the mvpp2 driver) for this device were wrong. XDP
expected them to be numbered in [0..3] but we found numbers in [32..35].

The reason for this lies in mvpp2_main.c at lines 2962 and 2966 which are
of the form (symbolic notation, close to actual code, function
mvpp2_rxq_init()):

        err = xdp_rxq_info_reg(&rxq->some_xdp_rxqinfo, port->dev, rxq->id, 0);

The rxq->id value we pass to this function is incorrect - it's a virtual queue
id which is computed as (symbolic notation, not actual code):

        rxq->id = port->id * max_rxq_count + queue_id

In our case, max_rxq_count == 32 and port->id == 1 for eth2, meaning our
rxq->id are in the range [32..35] (for 4 queues).

We tried to force the rx queue id on the XDP side by using:

        ./af_xdp_user -d eth2 -Q 32

But that failed -- as expected, because we should not have more than 4
rx queues.

The computing of rxq->id is valid, but the use of rxq->id in this context is
not. What we really want here is the rx queue id for this port, and this value
is stored in rxq->logic_rxq -- as hinted by the code in mvpp2_rxq_init().
Replacing rxq->id by this value in the two xdp_rxq_info_reg() calls fixed the
issue and allowed us to use XDP on all the Macchiato ethernet ports.
