In order to synchronize the flow steering cache with hardware in DR
mode, the new function is introduced. The function needs to use both
flags of "MLX5DV_DR_DOMAIN_SYNC_FLAGS_SW/HW", or else some actions
and rules may get stuck in the work queue.

And in some old OS release with inbox driver, the enum used in the
function is not introduced yet. To resolve this, a local defined
macro is introduced. Then in Verbs mode, it will still do nothing.
In DV mode, the glue layer will return the unsupport error.

Fixes: 2e303780c17f ("net/mlx5: add flow sync API")
