Yeah, I'm not running any VF:s and it just seems like the responses
are dropped somewhere

when looking at "git log v4.19...v4.20
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/" nothing else really stands out...
The machine is also running NAT for my home network and all of that
works just fine...

I started with tcpdump, prooving that packets reached all the way
outside but replies never made it, reboorting
with 4.19.13 resulted in replies appearing in the tcpdump.

I don't quite know where to look - and what can i do to test - i tried
disabling all offloading (due to the UDP
offloading changes) but nothing helped...

Ideas? Patches? ;)
