IMO, Providing additional support up to the level to choose the errors
to drops give more control to the application. Meaning,
L1 errors such as FCS error
L2 errors ..
L3 errors such checksum
i.e ethdev spec need to have  error level supported by PMD and the
application can set the layers interested to drop.

I think, it is not based on any Patten matching. So IMO, it should be best if it
is part of RX offload.

Marvell HW has this feature.
