[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1] net/mlx5: fix ETH validation for GTP

[Lior Margalit <lmargalit@nvidia.com>]

The user is able to create a flow rule pattern with ETH after GTP
although it is not supported by the flex-parser configuration.

Failed the rule validation in such case with proper error message.

Fixes: 23c1d42c7138 ("net/mlx5: split flow validation to dedicated function")
