Re: [dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 20.11.1

["Wang, Haiyue" <haiyue.wang@intel.com>]

Hi Luca,

The base of 'b9c366e029  Feifei Wang      net/ixgbe: fix UDP zero checksum on Arm'
is also in 21.02, so no need to backporting.

git describe --contains cf96160a0a95a8a9b99c14a1bf08ce4a417e6922
v21.02-rc1~480

commit cf96160a0a95a8a9b99c14a1bf08ce4a417e6922
Author: Feifei Wang <feifei.wang2@arm.com>
Date:   Wed Nov 18 04:48:59 2020 -0600

    net/ixgbe: enable NEON path with checksum offload

    IXGBE NEON vector PMD now supports checksum offloading, hence can be
    used when DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CHECKSUM is set.


BR,
Haiyue
