When TCF_EM_SIMPLE was introduced, it is supposed to be convenient
for ematch implementation:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20050105110048.GO26856@postel.suug.ch/
"You don't have to, providing a 32bit data chunk without TCF_EM_SIMPLE
set will simply result in allocating & copy. It's an optimization,
nothing more."
So if an ematch module provides ops->datalen that means it wants a
complex data structure (saved in its em->data) instead of a simple u32
value. We should simply reject such a combination, otherwise this u32
could be misinterpreted as a pointer.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
