Do we agree that user space will get the replies of all lower (slave) devices,
or I am missing something here?

right

ok

the way tunneling is handled in tc classifier/action is

encap:  ingress: net port, action1: tunnel key set action2: mirred to
shared-tunnel device

decap: ingress: shared tunnel device, action1: tunnel key unset
action2: mirred to net port

type 4 are the decap rules, when we offload it to as HW ACL we stretch
the line and the ingress
in a HW port too (e.g uplink port in NICs)

right, we don't have  for NIC but for switch ASIC, I guess it is applicable
