It would make sense to also rename following enum:
enum tc_setup_type {
TC_SETUP_QDISC_MQPRIO,
TC_SETUP_CLSU32,
TC_SETUP_CLSFLOWER,
TC_SETUP_CLSMATCHALL,
TC_SETUP_CLSBPF,
TC_SETUP_BLOCK,
TC_SETUP_QDISC_CBS,
TC_SETUP_QDISC_RED,
TC_SETUP_QDISC_PRIO,
TC_SETUP_QDISC_MQ,
TC_SETUP_QDISC_ETF,
};
Maybe "enum setup_offload_type" and "SETUP_OFFLOAD_TC_*"?
Could you please do it in a follow-up?
Thanks!
