[ Upstream commit 8c6254479b3d5bd788d2b5fefaa48fb194331ed0 ]
In MACsec, it is possible to create multiple active TX SAs on a SC, but only one such SA can be used at a time for transmission. This SA is selected through the encoding_sa link parameter.
When there are 2 or more active TX SAs configured (encoding_sa=0): ip macsec add macsec0 tx sa 0 pn 1 on key 00 <KEY1> ip macsec add macsec0 tx sa 1 pn 1 on key 00 <KEY2>
... the traffic should be still sent via TX SA 0 as the encoding_sa was not changed. However, the driver ignores the encoding_sa and overrides it to SA 1 by installing the flow steering id of the newly created TX SA into the SCI -> flow steering id hash map. The future packet tx descriptors will point to the incorrect flow steering rule (SA 1).
This patch fixes the issue by avoiding the creation of the flow steering rule for an active TX SA that is not the encoding_sa. The driver side tx_sa object and the FW side macsec object are still created. When the encoding_sa link parameter is changed to another active TX SA, only the new flow steering rule will be created in the mlx5e_macsec_upd_txsa() handler.
