[dpdk-stable] [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix incorrect pointer operation

[Thomas Monjalon]

Hi,

How this issue was seen? Is it related to the bug reported by Tonghao Zhang?
If yes, you may use "Reported-by:".

One comment about the title, please describe which area is fixed,
instead of "incorrect pointer operation" which is very generic.
The title should probably include the word "meter".
Then in the explanations below, please explain what is the impact of the bug.

Thanks
