With commit a18e879d4e45 ("net/mlx5e: Annul encap action ordering
requirement") and a use-case of e-switch remote mirroring, the
incremental/stepped FTE removal process done by the fs core got us to
illegal transient states and FW errors:
SET_FLOW_TABLE_ENTRY(0x936) op_mod(0x0) failed, status bad
parameter(0x3), syndrome (0x9c2e40)
To avoid that and improve FTE removal performance, aggregate the FTE's
updates that should be applied. Remove the FTE if it is empty, or apply
one FW update command with the aggregated updates.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
