When filling in hardware intermediate representation tc_setup_flow_action()
directly obtains, checks and takes reference to dev used by mirred action,
instead of using act->ops->get_dev() API created specifically for this
purpose. In order to remove code duplication, refactor flow_action infra to
use action API when obtaining mirred action target dev. Extend get_dev()
with additional argument that is used to provide dev destructor to the
user.

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.
