 * Recirculation ID pool.
 * ======================
 *
 * Recirculation ID needs to be unique for each datapath. Recirculation
 * ID pool keeps track recirculation ids.
 *
 * Typically, there is one recirculation ID pool for each backer.
 *
 * In theory, Recirculation ID can be any uint32_t value, except 0.
 * The implementation usually limits it to a smaller range to ease
 * debugging.
 *
 * Thread-safety
 * =============
 *
 * All APIs are thread safe.
