[PATCH v2 7/9] net/mlx5: fix next protocol validation after flex item

[Viacheslav Ovsiienko]

On the flow validation some items may check the preceding protocols.
In case of flex item the next protocol is opaque (or can be multiple
ones) we should set neutral value and allow successful validation,
for example, for the combination of flex and following ESP items.

Fixes: a23e9b6e3ee9 ("net/mlx5: handle flex item in flows")
