Sorry, I miss understanding this code change, actually you didn't remove a flag, but just replace it,  NOTSUP_MASK no need to be changed

Then I don't understand why "Any packet with the RTE_MBUF_F_TX_SEC_OFFLOAD flag should have refused in iavf_prep_pkts"
But I assume tx_pkt_prepare should reject only invalid packets while still functioning correctly with inline IPsec.
