This warns about "Disabling LRO" on an enable request?
More fundamentally, it appears that the device does not advertise
the feature as configurable in netdev_hw_features as of commit
6c3a823e1e9c ("net/mlx5e: RX, Remove HW LRO support in
legacy RQ"), so shouldn't this be caught by the device driver
independent ethtool code?
