When offloading vports, we don't configure rte_flow on the vport itself,

We don't need these flow_dump APIs, since we are not really dumping
any flows here and also orig_in_port is provided to the offload layer
(Patch 12).
We still need them to traverse the ports to get the vxlan netdev in case
of a miss. See patch #5:
37056941f netdev-offload-dpdk: Implement HW miss packet recover for vport
There, see get_vport_netdev.
The naming is because this is "flow_api" and the implementation is of an
existing API rather than introducing new one(s).
