Using mlxsw driver, the configurations are offloaded just in case that there is a physical port which is enslaved to the virtual device (e.g., to a bridge). In 'mirror_gre_bridge_1q_lag' test, the bridge gets an address and route before there are ports in the bridge. It means that these configurations are not offloaded. Till now the test passes with mlxsw driver even that the RIF of the bridge is not in the hardware, because the ARP packets are trapped in layer 2 and also mirrored, so there is no real need of the RIF in hardware. The previous patch changed the traps 'ARP_REQUEST' and 'ARP_RESPONSE' to be done at layer 3 instead of layer 2. With this change the ARP packets are not trapped during the test, as the RIF is not in the hardware because of the order of configurations. Reorder the configurations to make them to be offloaded, then the test will pass with the change of the traps.

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.
