On one hand, nft refuses th expression in bridge family if layer3
protocol has not been assured by a previous match. On the other, ebt_ip
kernel module will only match on IPv4 packets, so there might be a
functional change in the translation versus the original.
Instead of just always emitting an 'ether type' match, decide whether
it's actually needed - explicit "ip <something>" payload matches (or
icmp ones) cause implicit creation of a match on IPv4 by nft.
