I'm not sure about the repeating "TABLE" at the end of this flag name.

A dot is missing.

Every lines should end with a dot in Doxygen for consistency.

Why is it inline?
In general we avoid inline except for few performance sensitive ones.

I like the idea of these 3 new functions.
The scenario should be described in doc/guides/prog_guide/rte_flow.rst
