Please add upstream commit info for backports. For this one I added

[ upstream commit 92818d839e8eb0ce479db826f00aa6d62384fc92 ]

Changed to fixed commit on main branch
Fixes: 00f75a40576b ("net/mlx5: fix VLAN match for DV mode")

If it's a backport where the main branch commit fixes something on main,
then we keep that Fixes: tag. If is fixing an LTS only issue then can
use the LTS branch commit id in the Fixes:.
