For cls_bpf the callbacks used to be 100% symmetrical, i.e. destroy
would always be guaranteed if add succeeded (regardless of state of
skip_* flags).

I haven't checked cls_flower on the nfp because it implodes on add
already...  I hear the fix is simple so I can check, if that helps.
Although from quick code inspection it seems fl_hw_destroy_filter()
was always invoked before fl_destroy_filter(), so it looks like since
flower doesn't track which filters were offloaded successfully it may
send destroy events for filter drivers don't hold, but destroy should
always be guaranteed there too.
