From: Gregory Etelson <getelson@nvidia.com>
RTE flow API provides RAW item type for packet patterns of variable
length. The RAW item structure has fixed size members that describe the
variable pattern length and methods to process it.
A new RTE flow item type with variable length pattern that does not
fit the RAW item meta description could not use the RAW item.
For example, the new flow item that references 64 bits PMD handler
cannot be described by the RAW item.
The patch allows RTE conv helper functions to process custom flow
items with variable length pattern.
