BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1922678

Currently the flow table offload replace, destroy and stats work items are
executed on a single workqueue. As such, DESTROY and STATS commands may
be backloged after a burst of REPLACE work items. This scenario can bloat
up memory and may cause active connections to age.

Instatiate add, del and stats workqueues to avoid backlogs of non-dependent
actions. Provide sysfs control over the workqueue attributes, allowing
userspace applications to control the workqueue cpumask.
