Please move this into the "if (is_macsec_md_dst)" block below, since
it's no longer used outside.

If you insist on this warning (and I'm not convinced it's useful,
since if the HW is already built and cannot inform the driver, there's
nothing the driver implementer can do), I would move it somewhere into
the config path. macsec_update_offload would be a better location for
this kind of warning (maybe with a pr_warn (not limited to debug
configs) saying something like "MACsec offload on devices that don't
support md_dst are insecure: they do not provide proper isolation of
traffic"). The comment can stay here.
