The patch should add item in release notes (as well as all other
subsequent patches which add more features).

As I understand PMD may provide more reach classification
than set. So, it is not obliged to set packet type to 0.

If I remember correctly DPDK style prefers to compare vs 0.

Do we really want so strict check here? May be just check
that intersection is not empty if ptype_mask is not empty?
I think that setting ptype_mask to 0 could be pretty often and
may be it makes sense to avoid get in the case. Also consider
to return OK even if there is no get/set callbacks at all.

Should it be experimental?
Please, add it to .map file.
