[PATCH net v1] ixgbe: ensure IPsec VF<->PF compatibility

[PATCH net v1] ixgbe: ensure IPsec VF<->PF compatibility

[Leon Romanovsky]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

The VF driver can forward any IPsec flags and such makes the function
is not extendable and prone to backward/forward incompatibility.

If new software runs on VF, it won't know that PF configured something
completely different as it "knows" only XFRM_OFFLOAD_INBOUND flag.

Fixes: eda0333ac293 ("ixgbe: add VF IPsec management")
