Could you please explain the reason of introducing the *_remove_entry_locked
function if "airoha_ppe_foe_flow_remove_entry()" is still never called out of
"airoha_ppe_foe_flow_remove_entry_locked()" context (at least in this
series)?
I would expect that it can be useful if you have an use case when you want
to call "airoha_ppe_foe_flow_remove_entry()" from another function that
has already taken the lock, but I haven't found such a context.

Thanks,
Michal
