Group all per-cpu data to one structure instead of having many
globals. Also prepare the internals so that we can have multiple
instances of the flow cache if needed.

Only the kmem_cache is left as a global as all flow caches share
the same element size, and benefit from using a common cache.

Grouping everything together looks sane.  But adding the flow
cache pointer to everything seems to be unnecessary.  Why would
we need multiple flow caches?

Cheers,

Just a precaution since it doable cheaply.

If we want generic flow cache, we might want to have multiple
instance in future. It might also make sense to have per-net
flow cache.

OK that makes sense.
