cache: add NFT_CACHE_UPDATE and NFT_CACHE_FLUSHED flags
NFT_CACHE_FLUSHED tells cache_update() to skip the netlink dump to populate the cache, since the existing ruleset is going to flushed by this batch. NFT_CACHE_UPDATE tells rule_evaluate() to perform incremental updates to the cache based on the existing batch, this is required by the rule commands that use the index and the position selectors. This patch removes cache_flush() which is not required anymore. This cache removal is coming too late, in the evaluation phase, after the initial cache_update() invocation. Be careful with NFT_CACHE_UPDATE, this flag needs to be left in place if NFT_CACHE_FLUSHED is set on. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
