Add the plumbing to program the AIROHA_FOE_QID field in the PPE FOE entry with a per-flow priority value during flowtable offload. This allows the hardware to steer offloaded flows to a specific QoS queue on the egress QDMA block for traffic forwarded between two interfaces via hardware acceleration, bypassing the kernel forwarding path. The priority parameter is currently always zero because netfilter does not yet provide a mechanism to pass the skb priority field to the flowtable offload driver. Once that support is added in the netfilter subsystem, the driver will be able to extract the priority from the flow rule and map it to the appropriate hardware queue.
