I don't think we should be defining driver APIs when we haven't even
figured out how the core of it would even work yet.

A key part of this is the netfilter bits, that will require
non-trivial flow identification, a hash will simply not be enough, and
it will not be allowed to not support the netfilter bits properly
since everyone will have netfilter enabled in one way or another.
