Fair enough.

With MRP we did it like this, and after Nik asked for details on what is
being offload, we thought that adding this would help.

The reason why we did not include the implementation of this interface
is that it is for a new SoC which is still not fully available which is
why we have not done the basic SwitchDev driver for it yet. But the
basic functionality clearly needs to come first.

Our preference is to continue fixing the comments we got on the pure SW
implementation and then get back to the SwitchDev offloading.

This will mean dropping the last 2 patches in the serie.

Does that work for you Jiri, and Nik?

Sounds good to me. Sorry I was unresponsive last week, but I was sick and
couldn't get to netdev@. I'll review the set today.

Perfect. Thanks for the support.
