Tunnel device follows RFC 6040, and during decapsulation inner
ip_ecn might change depending on inner and outer ip_ecn as follows:
+---------+----------------------------------------+
|Arriving | Arriving Outer Header |
| Inner +---------+---------+---------+----------+
| Header | Not-ECT | ECT(0) | ECT(1) | CE |
+---------+---------+---------+---------+----------+
| Not-ECT | Not-ECT | Not-ECT | Not-ECT | <drop> |
| ECT(0) | ECT(0) | ECT(0) | ECT(1) | CE* |
| ECT(1) | ECT(1) | ECT(1) | ECT(1)* | CE* |
| CE | CE | CE | CE | CE |
+---------+---------+---------+---------+----------+
Cells marked above are changed from original inner packet ip_ecn value.
Tc then matches on the modified inner ip_ecn, but hw offload which
matches the inner ip_ecn value before decap, will fail.
Fix that by mapping all the cases of outer and inner ip_ecn matching,
and only supporting cases where we know inner wouldn't be changed by
decap, or in the outer ip_ecn=CE case, inner ip_ecn didn't matter.
Fixes: bcef735c59 ("net/mlx5e: Offload TC matching on tos/ttl for ip tunnels")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
