Subject: sfc: Please add rss_cpus=hyperthreads support

Hi sfc people-

Can you please port the rss_cpus=hyperthreads feature from the
OpenOnload driver to the upstream driver?  The fact that sticking:

options sfc rss_cpus=hyperthreads

into modprobe.conf causes sfc to fail to load when OpenOnload isn't
installed is incredibly annoying, and the option is genuinely useful.

Thanks,
Andy
