Hi Ferruh,

No it is not the same issue, one this new patch is fixing some code for
the hardware drop flow support which will be available with next version
of MLNX_OFED.  

e0e37c1f80a0 ("net/mlx5: fix creation of drop flows") is fixing the
current version of the software drop queue which is possible with the
current MLNX_OFED GA.

Please keep them separate.

Thanks,
