While this patch actually adds more insertions than deletions, it actually tries to simplify the lookup logic for sc_ and src_ sticktable fetches. Indeed, smp_create_src_stkctr() and smp_fetch_sc_stkctr() combination was used everywhere the fetch supports sc_ and src_ form, and smp_fetch_sc_stkctr() even integrated some of the src-oriented fetch logic. Not only this was confusing, but it made the task of adding new generic fetches even more complex. Thus in this patch we completely dedicate smp_fetch_sc_stkctr() to sc_ oriented fetches, while smp_create_src_stkctr() is now renamed to smp_fetch_src_stkctr() and can now work on its own for src_ oriented fetches. It takes an additional paramater, "create" to tell the function if the entry should be created if it doesn't exist yet. Now it's up to the calling function to know if it should be using the sc_ oriented fetch or the src_ oriented one based on the input keyword.
