You are right that we correnlty only support ingress rules for E-Switch, I want to keep it open if in future we
will support also egress for E-Switch rules, but I guess we can update it when it will be relevant.
Regarding the if you wrote there should be only one ! not 2 since this code is relevant only if the user
didn't specified port_id.

Am I right?

I will remove this code.

This comment is correct, due to the second part of the if (E-Switch mode is enabled, never mind if 
it is E-Switch rule or Nic rule), but I will remove this comment and add it as part of the if updated comment.
