With the current code the VXLAN/NVGRE parsing routine
stored the configuration of the header on stack, this
might lead to overwriting the data on the stack.
Currently having VXLAN/NVGRE encap as sample actions
is done using RAW_ENCAP, for example:
1. set raw_encap 1 eth src.../ vxlan vni.../ ipv4.../ ...
set sample_actions 0 raw_encap / port_id id 0 / end
flow create 0 ... pattern eth / end actions
sample ration 1 index 0 / jump group 1 / end
The goal is to utilize the rte_flow_action_vxlan_encap
and rte_flow_action_nvgre_encap for sample actions.
This patch prepares storing the external data of vxlan and
nvgre encap into global data as a pre-step to supporting
vxlan and nvgre encap as a sample actions.
