Using a spinlock in the VLAN action causes performance issues when the VLAN
action is used on multiple cores. Rewrote the VLAN action to use RCU read
locking for reads and updates instead.
Fixed nxp flower action to use VLAN helper functions instead of accessing the
structure directly (build break error).
Thank you Manish. One minor nit, I think you meant nfp flower action...
Also is it possible to split this patch into 2 patches, it seems to do 2 things:
1. Update the VLAN action to use RCU.
2. Fix the nfp flower action to use the VLAN helper.

Can you please dump the build break error you are seeing here?
