Referenced commit changed policer action type from TC_ACT_UNSPEC (continue)
to TC_ACT_PIPE. However, since neither TC hardware offload layer nor mlx5
driver at the time validated action type and always assumed 'continue', the
breakage wasn't caught until later validation code was added. The change
also broke valid configuration when sending from offload-capable device to
non-offload capable. For example, when sending from mlx5 VF to OvS bridge
netdevice the traffic that passed matchall classifier with policer could no
longer match the following flower rule in software:

Fix the issue by restoring pps policer action type to 'continue'.

rate-limiting")
