Subject: [net 1/7] net/mlx5e: Allow offloading ipv4 header re-write for icmp

From: Jianbo Liu <jianbol@...lanox.com>

For ICMPv4, the checksum is calculated from the ICMP headers and data.
Since the ICMPv4 checksum doesn't cover the IP header, we can allow to
do L3 header re-write for this protocol.

Fixes: bdd66ac0aeed ('net/mlx5e: Disallow TC offloading of unsupported match/action combinations')
