I'm not sure it would. As I pointed out in the original rfc  at
https://inbox.dpdk.org/dev/cover.1578936382.git.sowmini.varadhan@microsoft.com/

we need to add a key for the 8 bit flags, but the multibit
trie lookup moves in steps of 4 bytes.

However, it has admittedly been a while since I tinkereed with this,
and I can give it a shot and get back.

Thanks
