These are OpenFlow actions whose behavior is defined by the OpenFlow
specification. They must have "OF" part of their name to make this clear,
as in "RTE_FLOW_ACTION_OF_MPLS_TTL_DEC".
More below.

The OpenFlow specification doesn't mention any parameter for these
actions. Unless I'm mistaken, it doesn't have a concept of "level", please
remove them.

No need to document dir and level for the above reasons.
You must describe how it's an OpenFlow action and provide a link to the
relevant OF specification.

Same comment as above re linking to OpenFlow.

"level" must be removed from here also.
