This patch adds the following limitations to the mlx5 PMD guide:
- With HW Steering and E-Switch enabled, transfer proxy port must
be started before any port representor.
- With HW Steering and E-Switch enabled, all representors
must be stopped before transfer proxy port is stopped.
Documentation of mlx5 PMD's implementations of
rte_eth_dev_start() and rte_eth_dev_stop() is updated accordingly:
- rte_eth_dev_start() returns (-EAGAIN) when transfer proxy port
cannot be started.
- rte_eth_dev_stop() returns (-EBUSY) when port representor
cannot be stopped.

The vector Tx path does not support VLAN insertion via the L2TAG2 field,
but the scalar path supports. The earlier commit was to force to select
scalar path as soon as kernel driver requests to use L2TAG2. That logic is
incorrect. Because other case like VLAN offloading not required but scalar
path selected would have a significant performance drop.
Therefore the following commit was reverted accordingly.
commit 0d58caa7d6 ("net/iavf: fix VLAN insertion")
After reverting this commit, the AVX512 Tx path would insert the VLAN tag
into the wrong location(inner of QinQ) when the kernel driver requested
L2TAG2. This is inconsistent with the behavior of PF(outer of QinQ).
It is currently known that ice kernel drivers newer than 1.8.9 will request
the use of L2TAG2. User can set parameter '--force-max-simd-bitwidth' to
64/128/256 to avoid this issue.

If any meter in the hierarchy has a policy flow containing set_tag or
modify_field action, the policy flow must match the src port to which
the policy belongs, to determine the order of modify_hdr and
meter action. But the meter hierarchy will not be able to use by
user flow that matches another src port.
To use this type of meter hierarchy for other src ports, we need to add
a new policy flow matching the new src port from the user flow
dynamically. But then it cannot be used by flow matching all ports.

The 4.4 kernel was end of life in February 2022,
and the next LTS is 4.9 and it is reaching EOL in January 2023.
The main distro using 4.9 is Debian Stretch and it is no longer
supported. When DPDK 22.11 is released, the 4.9 kernel would
only be receiving fixes for three months; therefore
lets make the official version 4.14.
As always, current major enterprise Linux releases will continue
to be supported, but those releases don't track regular kernel
version numbering.
