The flow items are not yet cleaned up in DPDK 22.11 as desired.

One solution can be using a fixed size array instead of ``.*MAX.*`` value.
* ethdev: The flow API matching pattern structures, ``struct rte_flow_item_*``,
- should start with relevant protocol header.
- Some matching pattern structures implements this by duplicating protocol header
- fields in the struct. To clarify the intention and to be sure protocol header
- is intact, will replace those fields with relevant protocol header struct.
- In v21.02 both individual protocol header fields and the protocol header struct
- will be added as union, target is switch usage to the protocol header by time.
- In v21.11 LTS, protocol header fields will be cleaned and only protocol header
- struct will remain.
+ should start with relevant protocol header structure from lib/net/.
+ The individual protocol header fields and the protocol header struct
+ may be kept together in an union as a first migration step.

+ These items are not compliant (not including struct from lib/net/):
