We use the switchdev parent HW id helper to identify if the mirred device
shares the same ASIC/port with the ingress device. This can get us wrong
in the presence of upper devices such as vlan or bridge set over the HW
devices (VF or uplink representors), b/c the switchdev ID is retrieved
recursively.
To fail offload attempts in such cases, we condition the check on the
egress device to have not only the same switchdev ID but also the relevant
mlx5 netdev ops.

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.
