Add the reoffload tcf_proto_op in flower to generate an offload message for each filter in the given tcf_proto. Call the specified callback with this new offload message. The function only returns an error if the callback rejects adding a 'hardware only' rule. A filter contains a flag to indicate if it is in hardware or not. To ensure the reoffload function properly maintains this flag, keep a reference counter for the number of instances of the filter that are in hardware. Only update the flag when this counter changes from or to 0. Add a generic helper function to implement this behaviour.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
