Context 0 (default context) always exists, there is no need to check
whether it exists or not when adding a flow steering rule.
The existing check fails when creating a flow steering rule for context
0 as it is not stored in the rss_ctx xarray.
For example:
$ ethtool --config-ntuple eth2 flow-type tcp4 dst-ip 194.237.147.23 dst-port 19983 context 0 loc 618
rmgr: Cannot insert RX class rule: Invalid argument
Cannot insert classification rule
An example usecase for this could be:
- A high-priority rule (loc 0) directing specific port traffic to
context 0.
- A low-priority rule (loc 1) directing all other TCP traffic to context
1.
This is a user-visible regression that was caught in our testing
environment, it was not reported by a user yet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
