I'll better split tc-flower code and ACL code to separate files. This
chips support other engines which can be used for priority remaping. For
example DiffServ/DSCP

According to KSZ9477S 5.2.8.2 Port Priority Control Register
"To achieve the desired functionality, do not set more than one bit at a
time in this register.
...
Bit 6 - OR’ed Priority
...
Bit 2 - 802.1p Priority Classification
Bit 1 - Diffserv Priority Classification
Bit 0 - ACL Priority Classification
"
@Arun what will happen if multiple engines are used for packet
prioritization? For example ACL || Diffserv || 802.1p... ?
If I see it correctly, it is possible but not recommended. Should I
prevent usage of multiple prio sources?
