IB/core: Remove ib_uverbs_flow_spec structure from userspace
The structure holding any types of flow_spec is of no use to userspace. It would be wrong for userspace to do: struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec flow_spec; flow_spec.type = IB_FLOW_SPEC_TCP; flow_spec.size = sizeof(flow_spec); Instead, userspace should use the dedicated flow_spec structure for - Ethernet : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_eth, - IPv4 : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_ipv4, - TCP/UDP : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_tcp_udp. In other words, struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec is a "virtual" data structure that can only be use by the kernel as an alias to the other.
