So maybe " Field IDs for packet field, used by
RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD."?
But when COMPARE item to be added. It will be " Field IDs for packet field,
used by RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD and RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_COMPARE." And
I assume that will still need a second line since it is too long.
