[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix flag non-template rule cleanup

[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix flag non-template rule cleanup

[Junfeng Guo]

Set the flag nt_rule to be FALSE whenever the flow rule is created
through template API. This would ensure that this flow is always
treated as template API flow after mlx5_ipool_malloc without being
zeroing via memset.

Otherwise, some tables or template actions may be still in use for
port init stage when attaching a port for template or non-template
rule, in scenarios where the uninitialized memory nt_rule happens
to contain a TRUE value.

Fixes: 2fda185a8c1c ("net/mlx5: reuse flow fields")
Fixes: 63296851fadb ("net/mlx5: support flow rule update")
