Tc chains are implemented by creating a chained prio steering type, and
inside it there is a namespace for each chain (FDB_TC_MAX_CHAINS). Each
of those has a list of priorities.
Currently, all namespaces in a prio start at the parent prio level.
But since we can jump from chain (namespace) to another chain in the
same prio, we need the levels for higher chains to be higher as well.
So we created unused prios to account for levels in previous namespaces.
Fix that by accumulating the namespaces levels if we are inside a chained
type prio, and removing the unused prios.

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.
