> Multiple rules could use the same encap_decap/modify_hdr/counter action.
> The flow dump data could be duplicated.
> 
> To avoid redundancy, flow dump value is based on the actions' pointer
> instead of previous rules' pointer.
> 
> For counter, the data is stored in cmng of priv->sh.
> For encap_decap/modify_hdr, the data stored in
> encaps_decaps/modify_cmds.
> Traverse the fields and get action's pointer and information.
> 
> Formats are same for information in the dump except "id" stands for
> actions' pointer:
>     Counter:     rec_type,id,hits,bytes
>     Modify_hdr:  rec_type,id,actions_number,actions
>     Encap_decap: rec_type,id,buf
