Can you please put a reference for above information?
This update the doxygen format and the mask for qfi
to properly identify the full 8 bits of the field.
note: changing the default mask would cause different
patterns generated by testpmd.

By design requirement, rte_flow_item_* should start with the relevant protocol
header.
There is already a deprecation notice for using protocol header directly in the
rte_flow_item* [1] and Adrew/Ivan already fixed a few of them [2].
Your patch is not directly related on this, but since you are touching to the
flow_item, would you mind create a protocol struct for it first, and use it in
the "struct rte_flow_item_gtp_psc"?
So the protocol related update can be done in the protocol header, instead of
rte_flow struct.
