Hi Dariusz,

metaday dynamic field is explicitly registered when testpmd
command used to enable tx metadata, or rte flow rule created
with "set_meta" action.

Can you please document more when this implicit enablement
is required? And why that case doesn't cover above explicit
enable cases?

According below code it is only registered in the DST_TYPE block,
not is 'else' (which seems src) leg, is this OK?
