Ondřej Hlavatý 16e6653c82 ixgbe: fix parsing of TC actions for HW offload
The previous code was optimistic, accepting the offload of whole action
chain when there was a single known action (drop/redirect). This results
in offloading a rule which should not be offloaded, because its behavior
cannot be reproduced in the hardware.

For example:

$ tc filter add dev eno1 parent ffff: protocol ip \
    u32 ht 800: order 1 match tcp src 42 FFFF \
    action mirred egress mirror dev enp1s16 pipe \
    drop

The controller is unable to mirror the packet to a VF, but still
offloads the rule by dropping the packet.

Change the approach of the function to a pessimistic one, rejecting the
chain when an unknown action is found. This is better suited for future
extensions.

Note that both recognized actions always return TC_ACT_SHOT, therefore
it is safe to ignore actions behind them.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
