For Flow Director, we don't want to re-use an existed profile with the
same field vector and mask. Merging two different flow_type’s field
vector will also make them sharing trained rule and cause rule
interference.
For example:
issue rule A: IPV4_TCP matching tcp src&dst port 80 to queue 8
issue rule B: IPV6_TCP matching tcp src&dst port 200 to queue 20
Below behavior is found but not expected:
IPV4_TCP pkt with src&dst port 200 hits rule B and goes to queue 20
IPV6_TCP pkt with src&dst port 80 hits rule A and goes to queue 8
