The struct will not be used, and without exposing it, the compiler will
complain on code like I have in patch 9/10 ("net/mlx5e: Support offload

static int parse_tc_actions(struct mlx5e_priv *priv, struct tcf_exts *exts,

{
	const struct tc_action *a;

	if (tc_no_actions(exts))
		return -EINVAL;

	*flow_tag = MLX5_FS_DEFAULT_FLOW_TAG;
	*action = 0;

	tc_for_each_action(a, exts) {
