OpenWrt 21.02 status

[Hauke Mehrtens]

Hi,

We did the 21.02-rc4, but there is still a problem with flow offloading 
as this was not fixed. The other problems should be fixed now.

Some more information can be found here:

It could be that this change causes the problems:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/20180720130906.27687-3-pablo@netfilter.org/

I do not know how much time and interest I have in debugging and fixing 
this problem. If someone wants to have a closer look into this problem 
it would be really nice. even when you can make it easier to reproduce 
it in a test environment it would be nice.

Should we just release with this as a known problem?

Other than this problem I am not aware of any other critical problem.
