  The Direct Verbs are using matcher object to filter flows, This object
can be reused for all flows that are using the same flow items and
masks.

This was implemented with an issue, that the list pointer pointed
to incorrect list type, this resulted in compilation error when using
GCC greater then 4.8.5

This commit fixes this issue by setting that the matcher object
will include the LIST required members directly and not as a subobject.

Fixes: 8d21c3d7b237 ("net/mlx5: add Direct Verbs translate items")

Squashed into relevant commit in next-net, thanks.

But since this patch touches more than what it claims fixing [1], it took some
effort, final output of conflict resolving looks OK but please confirm top of
next-net.
