You can filter with U32 by src/dst MAC on ingress and
by dst MAC on egress. On egress the src MAC is replaced with
new one and there is no good reason to apply U32 filters for sender's
MAC.

Why not, just use negative offsets with U32 to access
the 14-byte eth frame header before the IP header:
Decimal Ofs Description
-----------------------------------
-14: DST MAC, 6 bytes
-8: SRC MAC, 6 bytes
-2: Eth PROTO, 2 bytes, eg. ETH_P_IP
0: Protocol header (IP Header)
