The -HEAD RSS stuff has a global set of (compiled in) config options
that say whether L2/L3 RSS hashing is enabled. It's more complicated
than that, as the alignment of RSS NIC config, expected RSS hash info
and the tcp/udp pcb table hashing has to align, or weird stuff
happens.

It still needs a bunch more work. Unfortunately it's not in my "would
be useful for work" right at the moment, so other things are taking
priority.
