Hi Radu,

Can you ack this deprecation notice if not issues?

> Subject: [PATCH v3] doc: announce rte_ipsec API changes
> 
> In case of event mode operations where event device can help in atomic
> sequence number increment across cores, sequence number need to be
> provided by the application instead of being updated in rte_ipsec or the
> PMD.
> 
> To support this, two new APIs rte_ipsec_pkt_crypto_sqn_assign and
> rte_ipsec_pkt_crypto_xprepare are introduced decoupling the seq no update
> functionality from the existing rte_ipsec_pkt_crypto_prepare API.
> Additionally, a new flag ``RTE_IPSEC_SAFLAG_SQN_ASSIGN_DISABLE`` will be
> added to allow disabling of internal sequence number update inside IPsec
> library.
