Why not inline (which keeps type checking) instead of macro.
Results in same code.

Also, prefer "invalid" instead "ILLEGAL" . There is no government inforcing
a rule on packet headers.

Also, what about ipv4 options, or TCP options?

And even VXLAN header check should be more rigorous.  What about not allowing
fragments in IP header for example.

If you are going to do enforcement, be as strict as you can.
