grep told me it isn't:

$ git grep 'include.*tc_act/'
net/sched/act_csum.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_csum.h>
net/sched/act_gact.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_gact.h>
net/sched/act_ipt.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_ipt.h>
net/sched/act_mirred.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_mirred.h>
net/sched/act_nat.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_nat.h>
net/sched/act_pedit.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_pedit.h>
net/sched/act_simple.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_defact.h>
net/sched/act_skbedit.c:#include <linux/tc_act/tc_skbedit.h>

(those are uapi headers, which I don't touch.)
