Following experimental symbols related to flow metadata were added in v19.11:
- rte_flow_dynf_metadata_register - rte_flow_dynf_metadata_offs - rte_flow_dynf_metadata_mask Type of rte_flow_dynf_metadata_offs was changed from int to int32_t in v20.05 release. There were no changes to these symbols since then. This patch promotes these symbols and removes __rte_experimental from the following inline functions: - rte_flow_dynf_metadata_avail - rte_flow_dynf_metadata_get - rte_flow_dynf_metadata_set All these symbols and functions will be used by netdev-doca backend in Open vSwitch [1]. Stabilizing these symbols is required by current OVS policy to remove the need for ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_API [2].
