I fail to understand why you introduce ops->delete(), it seems all
you want is getting the tn->idrinfo, but you already have tc_action
before calling ops->delete(), and tc_action has ->idrinfo...

Each type of action does the same too, that is, just calling
tcf_idr_delete_index()...

This changelog sucks again, it claims for skipping rtnl lock,
but you can skip rtnl lock by just calling tcf_idr_delete_index()
directly too, it is not the reason for adding ops->delete().
