Is it a fix, or secondary process was not intended to be supported
previously? If it is a fix, please provide the Fixed commit (will save
Ferruh searching for it).

Secondary process was not intended to be supported previously. So it is ok to not backport the change to all ongoing stable releases.
However, the change has been tested with DPDK 19.11, I am wondering if it can be pulled in that stable tree.
Please see below the fixline tag.
Fixes: 540a211084a7 ("bnx2x: driver core")
Thanks!

Fixes tag won't be needed now as you've confirmed the code was doing
what it was intending to do.

Since there is a request to backport this into 19.11, I was planning to add the
fixes tag (stable tag is already there) but will it confuse the 18.11 because
the commit in fixes line is older than 18.11?

I think it should not have a Fixes tag. In this case there is nothing
being fixed, just a new feature being added/supported. It will be picked
up as a candidate for stable branches through the cc: stable, from there
it can be discussed.

OK, I am not changing anything.
But when fixes tag is missing I am not clear how you decide if the fix should go
into any specific LTS or not, it should be hard to figure it out without
reference point.

Yes, you are correct, for bugfixes it is important because otherwise
stable maintainer have to stop, try to figure it out and start email
convo with authors to discuss etc. Whereas with Fixes tags, non-relevant
ones for a branch can pruned out quickly and discussion is not needed.
In this case however, where it's not really a bugfix but more a request
to add/support something new, it probably needs discussion anyway and
not having the Fixes tag ensures that takes place and it doesn't
automatically slip in unnoticed.
