[ Upstream commit 7b3707fc79044871ab8f3d5fa5e9603155bb5577 ] Driver caches packet merge type in mlx5e_params instance which must be in perfect sync with the netdev_feature's bit. Prior to this patch, in certain conditions (*) LRO state was set in mlx5e_params, while netdev_feature's bit was off. Causing the LRO to be applied on the RQs (HW level). (*) This can happen only on profile init (mlx5e_build_nic_params()), when RQ expect non-linear SKB and PCI is fast enough in comparison to link width. Solution: remove setting of packet merge type from mlx5e_build_nic_params() as netdev features are not updated.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
