This series fixes three bugs in the stmmac L3/L4 TC flower filter
implementation for the XGMAC2 core. All three patches target net.
The L3/L4 filter match count statistics patch (originally patch 4/4)
has been split out and will be sent separately against net-next per
Andrew Lunn's review of v1.
Patch 1 fixes a register corruption bug in the L4 filter port configuration.
The XGMAC_L4_ADDR register holds both source and destination port match
values in a single register. The original code overwrites the entire register
when setting either field, silently erasing the other. This is fixed by
using a read-modify-write sequence.
Patch 2 fixes the basic flow match parser to properly reject unsupported
offload requests with -EOPNOTSUPP instead of silently accepting them.
Unsupported cases include partial protocol masks, non-IPv4 network proto,
and non-TCP/UDP transport proto.
Patch 3 fixes a stale action bug on filter deletion. When a filter entry
with a drop action is deleted, the action field was not reset, causing
it to persist and potentially affect subsequent filter configurations.
All three patches fix the original L3/L4 filter implementation introduced in
425eabddaf0f ("net: stmmac: Implement L3/L4 Filters using TC Flower").
Changes in v2:
- Split patch 4/4 (ethtool stats) out to net-next per Andrew Lunn's review
