net: mscc: ocelot: refine the ocelot_ace_is_problematic_mac_etype function



The commit mentioned below was a bit too harsh, and while it restricted
the invalid key combinations which are known to not work, such as:

tc filter add dev swp0 ingress proto ip \
      flower src_ip 192.0.2.1 action drop
tc filter add dev swp0 ingress proto all \
      flower src_mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 action drop

it also restricted some which still should work, such as:

tc filter add dev swp0 ingress proto ip \
      flower src_ip 192.0.2.1 action drop
tc filter add dev swp0 ingress proto 0x22f0 \
      flower src_mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 action drop

What actually does not match "sanely" is a MAC_ETYPE rule on frames
having an EtherType of ARP, IPv4, IPv6, in addition to SNAP and OAM
frames (which the ocelot tc-flower implementation does not parse yet, so
the function might need to be revisited again in the future).

So just make the function recognize the problematic MAC_ETYPE rules by
EtherType - thus the VCAP IS2 can be forced to match even on those
packets.

This patch makes it possible for IP rules to live on a port together
with MAC_ETYPE rules that are non-all, non-arp, non-ip and non-ipv6.

Fixes: d4d0cb741d7b ("net: mscc: ocelot: deal with problematic MAC_ETYPE VCAP IS2 rules")
