No, that's a wrong claim, really ...

clsact in general hooks into the same logic as ingress, so TC_H_CLSACT
as major needs to reuse TC_H_INGRESS, and qdiscs set up as such set
TCQ_F_INGRESS as flags. For clsact that means both your block binder
types for clsact here (ingress/egress).

Please make sure that your other changes don't have similar assumption.
