[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v4 1/3] net/i40e: fix FDIR issue for ARP packets

[Wei Zhao]

Currently, flow "pattern eth type is 0x0806 / end actions mark id
0x86 / rss / end" can't be created successfully. FDIR parser
shouldn't deny RTE_ETHER_TYPE_ARP since ARP packets will be
parsed as PCTYPE_L2_PAYLOAD. This patch fixes the issue.

Bugzilla ID: 402
Fixes: 42044b69c67d ("net/i40e: support input set selection for FDIR")
