Copied the extack in flow_action_mixed_hw_stats_types_check() onto a
printk and logged the if parameters:

with iproute-next from today loaded with
'iproute2/net-next v2] tc: m_action: introduce support for hw stats

Which is quite interesting as it is not listing any hwstats fields at all.
Considering that due to tcf_action_hw_stats_type_get() and
hw_stats_type initialization in tcf_action_init_1(), the default is
for it to be 3 if not specified (which is then not dumped over netlink
by the kernel).

I'm wondering how it was 0 for i==0,1 and is 3 for i==2.
