Returns error. The MKEX profile can be in a way where higher layer packet fields
can overwrite lower layer packet fields in output MCAM Key. The commit
42006910 ("octeontx2-af: cleanup KPU config data") introduced TX TOS field and
it overwrites DMAC. AF driver return error when TX rule is installed
with DMAC as
match criteria since DMAC gets overwritten and cannot be supported. Layers from
lower to higher in our case:
LA - Ethernet
LB - VLAN
LC - IP
LD - TCP/UDP
and so on.

We make sure there are no overlaps between layers but TOS got added by mistake.
We will elaborate the commit description and send the next version.

Thanks,
Sundeep
