Allow offloading rules that redirect to ovs internal port ingress and egress. To support redirect to ingress device, offloading of REDIRECT_INGRESS action is added. When a tc rule redirects to ovs internal port, the hw rule will overwrite the input vport value in reg_c0 with a new vport metadata value that is mapped for this internal port using the internal port mapping api that is introduce in previous patches. After that the hw rule will redirect the packet to the root table to continue processing with the new vport metadata value. The new vport metadata value indicates that this packet is now arriving through an internal port and therefore should be processed using rules that apply on the same internal port as the filter device. Therefore, following rules that apply on this internal port will have to match on the same vport metadata value as part of their matching keys to make sure the packet belongs to the internal port.

README
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.
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.
