 Sorry, I misunderstood and caused you inconvenience.
 If the user does not set 'spec' and 'mask', we will set 'spec' '0000' and mask 'ffff' write fd table to HW,
 not set by DPDK interface.
 If the user set one of 'spec' and 'mask', we will also set 'spec' '0000' and mask 'ffff' write fd table to HW.
 This is how we handle it.
