Subject: [PATCH net] ixgbe: ensure IPsec VF<->PF compatibility
Date:   Wed, 30 Mar 2022 14:01:44 +0300

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

The VF driver can forward any IPsec flags and such makes the function
is not extendable and prone to backward/forward incompatibility.

If new software runs on VF, it won't know that PF configured something
completely different as it "knows" only XFRM_OFFLOAD_INBOUND flag.

There is no simple fix for this VF/PF incompatibility as long as FW
doesn't filter/decline unsupported options when convey mailbox from VF
to PF.
