Sorry I still didn't get your point
The issue is not a knowing issue, as a common bug, it is observed by somebody
and report to dev team.
So I didn't see anything we can update on the i40e documentation since the
issue is fixed.
And it also does not impact any user experience, (no new feature, no knowing
issue fix) so I didn’t see the point to update release notes also.
