** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ Mellanox TC filters don't work for some key rules after the Bionic 4.15
+ stable patchset 2019-07-12 update (LP: #1836426). The offending commit
+ is ("net/mlx5e: Set vlan masks for all offloaded TC rules").
+ 
+ This causes fatal network connectivity issues for projects that use the
+ Mellanox ConnectX 5 NIC.
+ 
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ TBD.
+ 
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Backport the following upstream commit (which fixes the offending commit) and 
its prerequisites:
+ d3a80bb5a3ea ("net/mlx5e: Don't match on vlan non-existence if ethertype is 
wildcarded")
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ Low. Changes are isolated and limited to the mlx5_core driver and all
+ commits are in upstream stable v4.19.y.
+ 
+ 
+ [Original description]
+ 
  The following upstream fix was missing from the latest upstream stable
  update (LP: # and LP1839376: #1839213):
