Yeah, as I recall I don't think I trusted that definition of
BITS_PER_LONG all that much anyway. I will replace it with
BITS_PER_BYTE * sizeof(long).

That's fine. The original patch included this so I just carried it
forward. However there are two includes of string.h in this file so
odds are the second one can just be dropped then.

My thought was that it would be useful for determining the number of
rings prior to adding a rule. Especially if we have any kind of scripts
running on top of ethtool so that we can avoid rules that will fail due
to ring values being greater than the actual number of rings. I might
try looking into adding it to the display options for the filters.

I was kind of thinking about merging the two interfaces too, but I was
looking at it more from the perspective of moving away from ntuple more
towards this newer interface. My main motivation being that the filter
display option is so badly broken for ntuple that it would be easier to
make ntuple a subset of the flow classifier instead of the other way around.
What would you think of using the "flow-type" keyword to indicate legacy
ntuple support, and then adding something like "class-rule-add", and
"class-rule-del" to add support for the network flow classifier calls?
Then for display we could add "ntuple-all", "class-rule-all", and
"class-rule %d" as display options with the default being to go through
and do both "ntuple-all" and "class-rule-all" if neither are specified.
Do you think something like that would work?

I just looked and it is since this is something from the original patch.
I'm not even really sure why the patch modified this piece except for
maybe to try and correct the fact that AH and ESP being merged makes it
much more difficult to separate. For now what I think I will do is spin
this off into a separate patch that will add support for displaying
AH_V4/6_FLOW and add support for setting and displaying ESP_V4/6_FLOW.

I will update the names to be consistent with the ntuple options,
however I would prefer to keep the option of short-cutting the mask via
the "m" value. It will not be hard to make it support both since the
pattern would be to test for either "m" or "%s-mask".

I'm already looking into using something like the cmdline_info to do the
parsing, however one thing I would like to retain is the mask setting as
a part of setting the value. Also since rxclass is being passed a
pointer it is going to have to work with relative offsets instead of
fixed values for the location of the fields within the structure.
