commit b82057d9ec851a8aba8a295b959190ef5098f330

After a decade of trying to deprecate the old policer syntax,
I believe it is time to kill it. The kernel build option for old
policer is gone for at least 5 years now (although backward
compatibility is still there). Being backward compatible meant
hijacking the keyword "action" and was obstructing policies like:
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip pref 10 \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:10 \
action skbedit mark 1 \
action police rate 10kbit burst 10k pipe \
action skbedit mark 2 \
action police rate 20kbit burst 20k pipe \
action action mirred egress mirror dev dummy0
