Applications normally match the next protocol implicitly by providing it as
the subsequent item (e.g. in testpmd by writing "eth / ip / tcp" instead of
"eth / ip next_proto_id spec 6").
This change forces users to write "eth / ip next_proto_id spec 6 / tcp" or
face an error due to an uninitialized next_proto_id (which might be garbage
due to uninitialized memory, not just 0).

Yes please, a better suggestion would be to rely on the subsequent item type
and not on the value of this field.
These default masks must only cover basic fields like source/destination
addresses and ports for most protocols.
