Tunnel devices provide no dev-&gt;netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_setup_tc(...) interface.
The tunnel device and route control plane does not provide an obvious
way to relate tunnel and physical devices.

This patch allows drivers to register a tunnel device offload handler
for the tc and netfilter frontends through flow_indr_dev_register() and
flow_indr_dev_unregister().

The frontend calls flow_indr_dev_setup_offload() that iterates over the
list of drivers that are offering tunnel device hardware offload
support and it sets up the flow block for this tunnel device.

If the driver module is removed, the indirect flow_block ends up with a
stale callback reference. The module removal path triggers the
dev_shutdown() path to remove the qdisc and the flow_blocks for the
physical devices. However, this is not useful for tunnel devices, where
relation between the physical and the tunnel device is not explicit.

This patch introduces a cleanup callback that is invoked when the driver
module is removed to clean up the tunnel device flow_block. This patch
defines struct flow_block_indr and it uses it from flow_block_cb to
store the information that front-end requires to perform the
flow_block_cb cleanup on module removal.

Make FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DONT_CARE be all bits, rather than none, so that
 drivers and __flow_action_hw_stats_check can use simple bitwise checks.

Pre-fill all actions with DONT_CARE in flow_rule_alloc(), rather than
 relying on implicit semantics of zero from kzalloc, so that callers which
 don't configure action stats themselves (i.e. netfilter) get the correct
 behaviour by default.

Only the kernel's internal API semantics change; the TC uAPI is unaffected.

v4: move DONT_CARE setting to flow_rule_alloc() for robustness and simplicity.

v3: set DONT_CARE in nft and ct offload.

v2: rebased on net-next, removed RFC tags.

This patch adds FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DONT_CARE which tells the driver
that the frontend does not need counters, this hw stats type request
never fails. The FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DISABLED type explicitly requests
the driver to disable the stats, however, if the driver cannot disable
counters, it bails out.

TCA_ACT_HW_STATS_* maintains the 1:1 mapping with FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_*
except by disabled which is mapped to FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DISABLED
(this is 0 in tc). Add tc_act_hw_stats() to perform the mapping between
TCA_ACT_HW_STATS_* and FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_*.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next:

1) Add support to specify a stateful expression in set definitions,
   this allows users to specify e.g. counters per set elements.

2) Flowtable software counter support.

3) Flowtable hardware offload counter support, from wenxu.

3) Parallelize flowtable hardware offload requests, from Paul Blakey.
   This includes a patch to add one work entry per offload command.

4) Several patches to rework nf_queue refcount handling, from Florian
   Westphal.

4) A few fixes for the flowtable tunnel offload: Fix crash if tunneling
   information is missing and set up indirect flow block as TC_SETUP_FT,
   patch from wenxu.

5) Stricter netlink attribute sanity check on filters, from Romain Bellan
   and Florent Fourcot.

5) Annotations to make sparse happy, from Jules Irenge.

6) Improve icmp errors in debugging information, from Haishuang Yan.

7) Fix warning in IPVS icmp error debugging, from Haishuang Yan.

8) Fix endianess issue in tcp extension header, from Sergey Marinkevich.
