Subject: [PATCH net] netfilter: flowtable: Fix expired flow not being deleted from software

Once a flow is considered expired, it is marked as DYING, and
scheduled a delete from hardware. The flow will be deleted from
software, in the next gc_step after hardware deletes the flow
(and flow is marked DEAD). Till that happens, the flow's timeout
might be updated from a previous scheduled stats, or software packets
(refresh). This will cause the gc_step to no longer consider the flow
expired, and it will not be deleted from software.

Fix that by looking at the DYING flag as in deciding
a flow should be deleted from software.
