net/mlx5e: Protect tc flows hashtable with rcu
In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock, access to tc flows hashtable
must be explicitly protected from concurrent flows removal.
Extend tc flow structure with rcu to allow concurrent parallel access. Use
rcu read lock to safely lookup flow in tc flows hash table, and take
reference to it. Use rcu free for flow deletion to accommodate concurrent
stats requests.
Add new DELETED flow flag. Imlement new flow_flag_test_and_set() helper
that is used to set a flag and return its previous value. Use it to
atomically set the flag in mlx5e_delete_flower() to guarantee that flow can
only be deleted once, even when same flow is deleted concurrently by
multiple tasks.
