Existing match criteria didn't allow to match whole subnet and
only by specific addresses only. This caused to tunnel mode do not
forward such traffic through relevant SA.
In tunnel mode, policies look like this:
src 192.169.0.0/16 dst 192.169.0.0/16
dir out priority 383615 ptype main
tmpl src 192.169.101.2 dst 192.169.101.1
proto esp spi 0xc5141c18 reqid 1 mode tunnel
crypto offload parameters: dev eth2 mode packet
In this case, the XFRM core code handled all subnet calculations and
forwarded network address to the drivers e.g. 192.169.0.0.
For mlx5 devices, there is a need to set relevant prefix e.g. 0xFFFF00
to perform flow steering match operation.
