Subject: [PATCH] Periodically flow expire from flow offload tables
When a flow is added to a flow table for offload SW/HW-offload
the user has no means of controlling the flow once it has
been offloaded. If a number of firewall rules has been made using
time schedules then these rules doesn't apply for the already
offloaded flows. Adding new firewall rules also doesn't affect
already offloaded flows.
This patch handle flow table retirement giving the user the option
to at least periodically get the flow back into control of the
firewall rules so already offloaded flows can be dropped or be
pushed back to flow offload tables.
The flow retirement is disabled by default and can be set in seconds
using sysctl -w net.netfilter.nf_flowtable_retire
