> PMD was unable to destroy RTC objects, because of dangling references to
> those objects. More specifically, if all matchers connected to a single flow
> table were created, this flow table was still referencing RTC objects when
> theye were being destroyed.
>
> This patch series fixes that behavior.
> Matcher uninitilization is updated to remove the references to RTC objects
> from flow table object if the last matcher related to the flow table was
> destroyed.
