====================
add flow_rule infrastructure
This patchset, as is, allows us to reuse the driver codebase to
configure ACL hardware offloads for the ethtool_rxnfc and the TC flower
interfaces. A few clients for this infrastructure are presented, such as
the bcm_sf2 and the qede drivers, for reference. Moreover all of the
existing drivers in the tree are converted to use this infrastructure.
This patchset is re-using the existing flow dissector infrastructure
that was introduced by Jiri Pirko et al. so the amount of abstractions
that this patchset adds are minimal. Well, just a few wrapper structures
for the selector side of the rules. And, in order to express actions,
this patchset exposes an action API that is based on the existing TC
action infrastructure and what existing drivers already support on that
front.
v7: This patchset is a rebase on top of the net-next tree, after
addressing questions and feedback from driver developers in the
last batch.

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.
