Not really easy to understand what you are talking about as this DPDK you mention is a not released by DPDK community.

The old FDIR was converted to Verbs flows, new implementation of FDIR is converted to rte_flow flow and then converted to Verb flows. You should have the same behavior, unless there is something done by the Mellanox DPDK bundle you were using until now. Can you test with an official DPDK 16.11 [1] ?
