OK, good explanation! I will change the name and thanks!

OK. I think others should be removed. As ARP/LLDP like packet types are combined
together with MAC type.

Currently it combines ether type and other ether type based protocols together.
So if it is a L2_LLDP, it could be treated as MAC + LLDP, while MAC means MAC only or MAC + L3.

Yes, they are a bit bothering. Currently they are combined together with L2 types.
Maybe it needs to define a MISC PACKET TYPE field, as we still have 4 bits available there.
