Subject: [PATCH nf-next,v3 0/7] Flow offload infrastructure

Hi,

This is a new round of the patchset to add the flow offload
infrastructure [1][2].

This round comes with IPv6 and mixed IPv4/IPv6 support, hardware offload
support in a separated nf_flow_table_hw module, port translation, net
namespace support and several bugfixes.

Patch 7/7 has been tagged as RFC, I will keep this one back until
there's an initial driver that introduces flow table offload support,
likely in a branch in nf-next.git once this new infrastructure gets
merged upstream.

Comments welcome, thanks.
