rvu_afpf_flr in drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeontx2/af/rvu.c got missed
and still has neither.

This isn't mentioned in the description or the documentation. Patch 2 says
workqueues without WQ_PERCPU are unbound, which is now false for WQ_BH, and
the WQ_BH section still says WQ_HIGHPRI is the only allowed additional flag.
Please update both.

Thanks.
