Hm, I just noticed something.

During parse the user only sets the max-sdu for the traffic classes she
is interested on. During dump you are showing all of them, the unset
ones will be shown as zero, that seems a bit confusing, which could mean
that you would have to add some checks anyway.

For the offload side, you could just document that U32_MAX means unset.
