I may miss something when RSS is not negotiated, hash_key_length, and
hash_key_data is necessary, otherwise how could we calculate the hash?

Not necessarily, e,g Qemu support vDPA control virtqueue passthrough.

queue_index would be reshuffle during attaching/detaching since the
netdev core forbids sparse active queue indices.

But I don't see it's an issue since we are talking about introducing
new uAPI here.

If it doesn't work, it doesn't change the point, a new uAPI is needed
since RSS requires async tx/rx queue numbers, current TUN only allows
combined queue pairs.

That's only because the spec only supports RSS and AUTOMQ so far. Or
do we expect a new virtio_net_XXX_hash_config for the new steering
algorithm?

Consider user do:

1) TUNSETQUEUE /* enable automq, push */
2) TUNSETSTEERINGEBPF /* enable steering ebp, push */
3) TUNSETETTERINGEBPF to NULL /* disable steering ebpf, pop */

Automq is in the stack top, so TUN will use that.
