From: Eli Cohen elic@nvidia.com Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2021 09:46:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: Fix HW spec violation configuring uplink
Make sure to modify uplink port to follow only if the uplink_follow capability is set as required by the HW spec. Failure to do so causes traffic to the uplink representor net device to cease after switching to switchdev mode.
