As it is a v2, it should be threaded with v1.

Just looking at the title, we should not take it for RC3.
But reading the commit message, especially "this leads to a
complete misinterpretation of the packet type being received",
it appears fixing a real bug. In this case, the title should be
"net/mlx4: fix Rx packet type offloads"
