This v2 is a lot better for the users to understand what happens.
Fixed the indent and moved few words:

* ethdev: Since no single PMD supports ``RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_HEADER_SPLIT``
  offload and the ``split_hdr_size`` field in structure ``rte_eth_rxmode``
  to enable per-port header split, they will be removed in DPDK 22.11.
  The per-queue Rx packet split offload ``RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_BUFFER_SPLIT``
  can still be used, and it is configured by ``rte_eth_rxseg_split``.

Applied, thanks.
