The reason is that these mean the same thing.
from: include/uapi/linux/bpf.h

#define BPF_TO_LE	0x00	/* convert to little-endian */
#define BPF_TO_BE	0x08	/* convert to big-endian */
#define BPF_FROM_LE	BPF_TO_LE
#define BPF_FROM_BE	BPF_TO_BE

So, to not cause confusion and follow the earlier cases I can add:

case BPF_ALU64 | BPF_END | BPF_FROM_LE:

in the next version.
