This patch adds initial support for offloading basechains using the priority range from 1 to 65535. This is restricting the netfilter priority range to 16-bit integer since this is what most drivers assume so far from tc. It should be possible to extend this range of supported priorities later on once drivers are updated to support for 32-bit integer priorities.

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.
