Hi,

Thanks for the patch, but this doesn't solve the problem, it still
fails to build:

../drivers/net/txgbe/txgbe_flow.c: In function ‘txgbe_parse_fdir_filter_tunnel’:
../drivers/net/txgbe/txgbe_flow.c:2599:60: error: request for member

      |                                                            ^

Could you please test that it compiles and works, and send a new
revision? Thanks
