net: flow_offload: skip hw stats check for FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DONT_CARE
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_*.
