Merge branch 'nf-hw-offload'

====================
netfilter: add hardware offload infrastructure

This patchset adds support for Netfilter hardware offloads.

This patchset reuses the existing block infrastructure, the
netdev_ops->ndo_setup_tc() interface, TC_SETUP_CLSFLOWER classifier and
the flow rule API.

Patch #1 adds flow_block_cb_setup_simple(), most drivers do the same thing
         to set up flow blocks, to reduce the number of changes, consolidate
         codebase. Use _simple() postfix as requested by Jakub Kicinski.
         This new function resides in net/core/flow_offload.c

Patch #2 renames TC_BLOCK_{UN}BIND to FLOW_BLOCK_{UN}BIND.

Patch #3 renames TCF_BLOCK_BINDER_TYPE_* to FLOW_BLOCK_BINDER_TYPE_*.

Patch #4 adds flow_block_cb_alloc() and flow_block_cb_free() helper
         functions, this is the first patch of the flow block API.

Patch #5 adds the helper to deal with list operations in the flow block API.
         This includes flow_block_cb_lookup(), flow_block_cb_add() and
	 flow_block_cb_remove().

Patch #6 adds flow_block_cb_priv(), flow_block_cb_incref() and
         flow_block_cb_decref() which completes the flow block API.

Patch #7 updates the cls_api to use the flow block API from the new
         tcf_block_setup(). This infrastructure transports these objects
         via list (through the tc_block_offload object) back to the core
	 for registration.

            CLS_API                           DRIVER
        TC_SETUP_BLOCK    ---------->  setup flow_block_cb object &
                                 it adds object to flow_block_offload->cb_list
                                                |
            CLS_API     <-----------------------'
           registers                     list with flow blocks
         flow_block_cb &                   travels back to
       calls ->reoffload               the core for registration

         drivers allocate and sets up (configure the blocks), then
	 registration happens from the core (cls_api and netfilter).

Patch #8 updates drivers to use the flow block API.

Patch #9 removes the tcf block callback API, which is replaced by the
         flow block API.

Patch #10 adds the flow_block_cb_is_busy() helper to check if the block
	  is already used by a subsystem. This helper is invoked from
	  drivers. Once drivers are updated to support for multiple
	  subsystems, they can remove this check.

Patch #11 rename tc structure and definitions for the block bind/unbind
	  path.

Patch #12 introduces basic netfilter hardware offload infrastructure
          for the ingress chain. This includes 5-tuple exact matching
          and accept / drop rule actions. Only basechains are supported
          at this stage, no .reoffload callback is implemented either.
          Default policy to "accept" is only supported for now.

        table netdev filter {
                chain ingress {
                        type filter hook ingress device eth0 priority 0; flags offload;

                        ip daddr 192.168.0.10 tcp dport 22 drop
                }
        }

This patchset reuses the existing tcf block callback API and it places it
in the flow block callback API in net/core/flow_offload.c.

This series aims to address Jakub and Jiri's feedback, please see specific
patches in this batch for changelog in this v4.
