net/mlx5_core: Connect flow tables
Flow tables from different priorities should be chained together. When a packet arrives we search for a match in the by-pass flow tables (first we search for a match in priority 0 and if we don't find a match we move to the next priority). If we can't find a match in any of the bypass flow-tables, we continue searching in the flow-tables of the next priority, which are the kernel's flow tables. Setting the miss flow table in a new flow table to be the next one in the list is performed via create flow table API. If we want to change an existing flow table, for example in order to point from an existing flow table to the new next-in-list flow table, we use the modify flow table API.
