You are correct but since the egress was already defined like this I didn't
want to add my code differently.
I don't care to change the new code to bit mask and in later patch (after this
release) modify also the egress;

Same as above comment to keep with the ingress variable.

First I agree it is confusing. But it doesn't waste bits since in any case we
must store a bit in each structure.
In any case I think I also should put it in my future commites.
