Here we are not returning any errors just a silent return, should we
return EINVAL instead?

Why are we ok with failing all possible operations here? What if we are
doing a FLOW_PUT and FLOW_DEL in a set?
Also one add might fail but another might pass, due to specific
resources, i.e. seperate hw resources for excact match, and masked
matches?

} else {
What should happen in this case? silently pass, if so we might
want to clear all the errors just in case?

Guess this should be undone as all comments in this file use this style
of closing.

Are we sure we want to stop? We did release X flows, maybe some others

Are ok with not clearing the flow_packets here? As now some of the

I might be missing the clue here, but alloc_flow_count is always 0, and
can't find the place where it is incremented. So are we always writing
to unallocated memory?
In addition in the sake of performance, we might want to start with
allocating X number, and increment by X, not by 1.

Think you should loose the assert, as you just checked this in
udpif_build_oor_flows()
If you are trying to safeguard stuff here I would make sure that none of
the indexes used are above the total_flow_count value.
