net/mlx5e: TC, Keep mod hdr actions after mod hdr alloc
[ Upstream commit 5e72f3f1c558019082cfeedeed73748f35d780c6 ]
When offloading TC NIC rule which has mod_hdr action, the
mod_hdr actions list is freed upon mod_hdr allocation.
In the new format of handling multi table actions and CT in
particular, the mod_hdr actions list is still relevant when
setting the pre and post rules and therefore, freeing the list
may cause adding rules which don't set the FTE_ID.
Therefore, the mod_hdr actions list needs to be kept for the
pre/post flows as well and should be left for these handler to
be freed.
