Re: [PATCH net 0/7] net/mlx5e: Fix offload lifetime, cleanup and exclusion bugs

Hi,

This series by Cosmin fixes several mlx5e offload issues:

- Block eswitch mode changes before accessing the IPsec context
during
  policy and SA creation.
- Tie TC eswitch and IPsec-blocking references to flow destruction,
  covering bulk cleanup and flows with outstanding references.
- Track MACsec hardware-object ownership explicitly and delete
remaining
  SecYs during driver cleanup.
- Serialize TC/IPsec exclusion counters with a dedicated mutex.
- Prevent SHAMPO from merging PSP packets.

Regards,
Tariq
