Merge branch 'offloading-tc-rules-hw'
Hadar Hen Zion says:
====================
Offloading tc rules using underline Hardware device
This series adds flower classifier support in offloading tc rules when the
Software ingress device is different from the Hardware ingress device,
such as when dealing with IP tunnels
The first two patches are a small fixes to flower, checking the skip_hw flag
wasn't set before calling the Hardware offloading functions which will try to
offload the rule.
The next two patches are infrastructure patches, a preparation for the fourth
patch which is adding support in flower to offload rules when the ingress
device is not a Hardware device and therefore can't offload.
In this case ndo_setup_tc is called with the mirred (egress) device.
The last three patchs are adding mlx5e support to offload rules using the new
"egress_device" flag.
Thanks,
Hadar
Changes from v0:
