+ the ``rte_eth_tunnel_filter_conf`` structure will be extended with a new field
+ ``filter_type_replace`` handling the bitmask combination of the filter types
+ defined by the values ETH_TUNNEL_FILTER_XX,
+ define new values for Outer VLAN and Outer Ethertype filters
+ ETH_TUNNEL_FILTER_OVLAN and ETH_TUNNEL_FILTER_OETH.
