I'm not sure that we care about using exactly the same naming as the
OpenFlow 1.0 document.  Our header file diverged years ago and now I
imagine that the diff is practically the whole file.

Do you think that FWW_* bits are superior to a mask in this case?
It's not clear-cut, to me, since it's a matter of a single byte and
both fields are part of that byte.
