Re: [dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 20.11.3

[Slava Ovsiienko <viacheslavo@nvidia.com>]

Hi, Luca

This patch:

 "c150dff40d  Viacheslav Ovsiienko net/mlx5: fix Rx queue timestamp format"

is not needed for 20.11LTS, the fix is already merged as part of:
8db55d6a "net/mlx5: fix receiving queue timestamp format"
(it was dedicated patch for 20.11LTS, refers to the correct commit in Upstream)

With best regards,
Slava
