Currently, the test takes about 626 seconds to complete because of an inefficient use of the device's TCAM. Reduce the runtime to 202 seconds by inserting all the flower filters with the same preference and mask, but with a different key. In particular, this reduces the deletion of the qdisc (which triggers the deletion of all the filters) from 66 seconds to 0.2 seconds. This prevents various netlink requests from user space applications (e.g., systemd-networkd) from timing-out because RTNL is not held for too long anymore.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
