The series has fixes for problems discussed in [1]. Basically it does not allow unsupported offloads to pass.
If fixes regressions for PMDs which carefully check offloads before, but these checks are removed now in favor of checks in ethdev. It may break applications which request some offload which is not supported by underlying PMD, but does not actually used. Depending on discussion results it should be either dropped or applied.
