net_sched: refactor TC action init API
TC action ->init() API has 10 parameters, it becomes harder to read. Some of them are just boolean and can be replaced by flags. Similarly for the internal API tcf_action_init() and tcf_exts_validate(). This patch converts them to flags and fold them into the upper 16 bits of "flags", whose lower 16 bits are still reserved for user-space. More specifically, the following kernel flags are introduced: TCA_ACT_FLAGS_POLICE replace 'name' in a few contexts, to distinguish whether it is compatible with policer. TCA_ACT_FLAGS_BIND replaces 'bind', to indicate whether this action is bound to a filter. TCA_ACT_FLAGS_REPLACE replaces 'ovr' in most contexts, means we are replacing an existing action. TCA_ACT_FLAGS_NO_RTNL replaces 'rtnl_held' but has the opposite meaning, because we still hold RTNL in most cases. The only user-space flag TCA_ACT_FLAGS_NO_PERCPU_STATS is untouched and still stored as before. I have tested this patch with tdc and I do not see any failure related to this patch.
