Just for the record, this is a summary of what we have discussed so
far:

 ...

Note that this batch was coming with a patch to reduce cache footprint
of the flowtable entries, so there is already working-in-progress
targeted at improving performance of this new software fast path.
Also, preparation works to introduce iptables support has been in the
radar while working on this.

We understand, we may have have spent more time in explaining all this
in the mailing list, we are trying to amend this now. Therefore, we
can probably convince someone here to write design documentation to be
placed on the Documentation/flowtable/ directory in the next pull
request if that makes it easier for the broader audience to understand
our effort and rise concerns, if any.

Noted.

Please resend your pull request.

Thanks.
