It is mixing features implemented in 17.11 and 17.05.
They should be added in their respective release notes if still relevant.
This part of the patch is removed when pulling next-net in master.

+Dynamic Device Personalization (DDP)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The Intel® Ethernet Controller X*710 support a feature called "Dynamic Device
+Personalization (DDP)", which is used to configure hardware by downloading
+a profile to support protocols/filters which are not supported by default.
+The DDP functionality requires a NIC firmware version of 6.0 or greater.
+
+Current implementation supports MPLSoUDP/MPLSoGRE/GTP-C/GTP-U/PPPoE/PPPoL2TP,
+steering can be used with rte_flow API.

+Load a profile which supports MPLSoUDP/MPLSoGRE:

+Delete a MPLS profile:
