Thanks for doing the conversion, I believe we could change things a
little bit such that there are fewer things to audit for correctness,
see below:

For instance here, instead of having to assign "reg" differently, just
have an intermediate struct flow_match_ports variable that either points
to &ports.mask or &ports.key.

I quickly glanced through the changes, and I suspect that they are
correct, but there is unfortunately way too much code movement within
the functions which greatly hinders the ability to have complete
confidence in the changes :)

Can you find a way to only perform the ethtool_rx_flow_spec to flow_rule
conversion as close as possible from the point of use within the callee?

Thanks!
