[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net/mlx5: fix VLAN validation

[Nelio Laranjeiro <nelio.laranjeiro@6wind.com>]

TCI field is read from the wrong place due to an invalid cast. Moreover
there is no need to limit matching to VID since PCP and DEI bits can be
matched as well.

Fixes: 12475fb203ad ("net/mlx5: support VLAN flow item")
