The code is wrong, so comes Fixes line, but I can remove it.

It works exactly like "regular" IPsec, nothing special, except
now users can switch to switchdev before adding IPsec rules.

 devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev

Same configurations as here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cover.1670005543.git.leonro@nvidia.com/
Packet offload mode:
  ip xfrm state offload packet dev <if-name> dir <in|out>
  ip xfrm policy .... offload packet dev <if-name>
Crypto offload mode:
  ip xfrm state offload crypto dev <if-name> dir <in|out>
or (backward compatibility)
  ip xfrm state offload dev <if-name> dir <in|out>

I didn't add Steffen as it is more flow steering magic series
and not IPsec :).

I'll resubmit on Sunday.

Thanks
