  The send to kernel action was supported in NIC and FDB tables,
Currently[1], the send to kernel action is created in NIC RX only.

With some TC rules (example: roce packets, redirects into rep ports)
and DPDK RTE rules for the rest of the traffic. Then it needs the
specific rule to re-route the packets into the kernel through the FDB
table.
    
This patchset adds the FDB and NIC-TX tables support for sending to the kernel
action, also updates the documentation.
