'tcfm_ok_push' specifies whether a mac_len sized push is needed upon
egress to the target device (if action is performed at ingress).

Rename it to 'tcfm_mac_header_xmit' as this is actually an attribute of
the target device.
This allows to decouple the attribute from the action to be taken.

Since you already touch this here and in patch 2/4 anyway, maybe
make that a bool along the way?
Ok.
(Thought of it, but my urge to lessen the diff eventually won)
Perhaps instead of tcfm_mac_header_xmit, tcfm_mac_header_push
might be a better name?
Don't think so.

Eventually this serves as the decision to either push or pull, so prefer
not to name it as the action (push/pull) but rather what is target
device's property (xmits at mh?).
