DPDK community has several emails discussion on this topic, these mails link is bellow: http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2017-March/060379.html, http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2017-March/060295.html, items like VLAN can already have several valid "types" (0x88a8, 0x8100, 0x9100), and who knows what will come up in the future. And ixgbe_flow just ignores the types when do filter configuration. So it may be reasonable to delete the related tpid check process. Also add some more comment log on stack explanation.
