Introduce MLX5_ETH_WQE_FT_META_SHIFT as a shared base offset for features that use the lower 8 bits of the WQE flow_table_metadata field, currently used for timestamping, IPsec, and MACsec. Define MLX5_ETH_WQE_FT_META_MACSEC_FS_ID_MASK so that fs_id occupies bits 2–5, making it clear that fs_id occupies bits in the metadata. Set MLX5_ETH_WQE_FT_META_MACSEC_MASK as the OR of the MACsec flag and MLX5_ETH_WQE_FT_META_MACSEC_FS_ID_MASK, corresponding to the original 0x3E mask. Update the fs_id macro to right-shift the MACsec flag by MLX5_ETH_WQE_FT_META_SHIFT and update the RoCE modify-header action to use it. Introduce the helper macro MLX5_MACSEC_TX_METADATA(fs_id) to compose the full shifted MACsec metadata value. These changes make it explicit exactly which metadata bits carry MACsec information, simplifying future feature exclusions when multiple features share the WQE flowtable metadata. In addition, drop the incorrect “RX flow steering” comment, since this applies to TX flow steering.

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 reStructuredText 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.
