Above change is causing build error [1] because the function declaration 
[2] differs from definition. Reproduced by latest gcc [3].

../drivers/net/bnxt/tf_ulp/ulp_flow_db.c:962:1: error: conflicting types 
for ‘ulp_flow_db_flush_flows’ due to enum/integer mismatch;

{aka ‘int(struct bnxt_ulp_context *, enum bnxt_ulp_fdb_type)’}
