> Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix GENEVE TLV option management
>
> In SW steering, the GENEVE TLV option matching flows must be created using
> a translation function.
> This function checks whether this option has already created a DevX object for
> the matching and either creates the objects or updates the reference counter.
> After translation, a flag in flow structure is turned on indicating the
> destroy
> function to release this DevX object.
>
> When the flow rule has meter, the rule may be split, and call translate
> function
> more than once per flow causing object reference counter to increase each
> time without updating the flow flag accordingly.
>
> This patch uses this flag as a reference counter which is increased every
> translation and indicates the destroy function how many destroy DevX to do.
