It is already there in one form. See following in existing header file.

/**
 * Meter policy
 */
struct rte_mtr_meter_policy_params {
        /**
         * Policy action list per color.
         * actions[i] potentially represents a chain of rte_flow actions
         * terminated by the END action, exactly as specified by the rte_flow
         * API for the flow definition, and not just a single action.
         */
        const struct rte_flow_action *actions[RTE_COLORS];
};
