[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/mlx5: fix incorrect L3/L4 layer chosen with tunnel

[Suanming Mou <suanmingm@mellanox.com>]

For tunnel mode, there maybe two L3/L4 layer match pattern items,
the inner layer follows the outer layer as the latter layer item,
the TTL and port modify actions should handle the outermost layer.

Current the outer and inner L3/L4 layers are both regared as the
outer layer in flow_dv_attr_init(), it caueses actions may use the
incorrect latter inner protocal for header modifier.

Check former L3/L4 outer layer existence avoid set the incorrect inner
layer to the flow attr.
