net: openvswitch: introduce common code for flushing flows
To avoid some issues, for example RCU usage warning and double free,
we should flush the flows under ovs_lock. This patch refactors
table_instance_destroy and introduces table_instance_flow_flush
which can be invoked by __dp_destroy or ovs_flow_tbl_flush.
Fixes: 50b0e61b32ee ("net: openvswitch: fix possible memleak on destroy flow-table")
