I am not sure how that supposed to work and how user should know that DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RESERVED_0
is actually a MACSEC for ixgbe?
Another question what to do if you would like to create a bonded device over two devices with different NIC types?
As I understand you can end up in situation when DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RESERVED_0 would mean different capabilities.
Why not to have this MACSEC capability and ol_flag value as generic ones, as you have them in previous versions of your patch?
