[SRU][F:linux-bluefield][PATCH 1/4] netfilter: flowtable: Use rw sem as flow block lock

From: Paul Blakey <paulb at mellanox.com>

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1927251

Currently flow offload threads are synchronized by the flow block mutex.
Use rw lock instead to increase flow insertion (read) concurrency.
