[Sugesh] I feel the single ID approach is much better. But I would say a fixed size ID
is easy to handle at upper layers. Say PMD returns 64bit ID in which MSBs 
are masked out, based on how many bits the hardware can support. 
PMD can refuse the unsupported number of bytes when requested. So the size
of ID going to be a parameter to program the flow.

[Sugesh] From an application point of view this can be an issue. 
Even there is a security concern when we program a short lived flow. Lets consider the case, 

1) Control plane programs the hardware with Queue termination flow.
2) Software dataplane programmed to treat the packets from the specific queue accordingly.
3) Remove the flow from the hardware. (Lets consider this is a long wait process..). 
Or even there is a chance that hardware take more time to report the status than removing it 
physically . Now the packets in the queue no longer consider as matched/flow hit.
. This is due to the software dataplane update is yet to happen.
We must need a way to sync between software datapath and classifier APIs even though 
they are both programmed from a different control thread.

Are we saying these APIs are only meant for user defined static flows??
