flow_offload_queue_work() can be called in workqueue without
bh disabled, like the call trace showed in my act_ct testing,
calling NF_FLOW_TABLE_STAT_INC() there would cause a call
trace:
BUG: using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] code: kworker/u4:0/138560
caller is flow_offload_queue_work+0xec/0x1b0 [nf_flow_table]

This patch fixes it by using NF_FLOW_TABLE_STAT_INC_ATOMIC()
instead in flow_offload_queue_work().
Note that for FLOW_CLS_REPLACE branch in flow_offload_queue_work(),
it may not be called in preemptible path, but it's good to use
NF_FLOW_TABLE_STAT_INC_ATOMIC() for all cases in
flow_offload_queue_work().

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.
