allow user to offload tc action to net device
Baowen Zheng says:
Allow use of flow_indr_dev_register/flow_indr_dev_setup_offload to offload
tc actions independent of flows.
The motivation for this work is to prepare for using TC police action
instances to provide hardware offload of OVS metering feature - which calls
for policers that may be used by multiple flows and whose lifecycle is
independent of any flows that use them.
This patch includes basic changes to offload drivers to return EOPNOTSUPP
if this feature is used - it is not yet supported by any driver.
Tc cli command to offload and quote an action:
# tc qdisc del dev $DEV ingress && sleep 1 || true
# tc actions delete action police index 200 || true
# tc qdisc add dev $DEV ingress
# tc qdisc show dev $DEV ingress
# tc actions add action police rate 100mbit burst 10000k index 200 skip_sw
# tc -s -d actions list action police

Changes between v7 and v8:
* Rename enum offload_act_command as enum flow_offload_act_command
* Add a single patch to rename exts stats update function for readability.
* Fix the kernel test robot issue reported by Oliver Sang.
Changes between v6 and v7:
* Add a single patch to rename offload functions with offload for readability.

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.
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.
