I don't know your logic here.
The OVL Adaptor pipeline is:

mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ +-------+
Merge -> | |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ | |
| |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ | |
Merge -> | |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ | |
| ETHDR |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ | |
Merge -> | |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ | |
| |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ | |
Merge -> | |
mdp_rdma -> padding ---+ +-------+

So mdp_rdma and merge is not OVL Adaptor?

mdp_rdma would not be DDP_COMPONENT_DRM_OVL_ADAPTOR.

merge would not be DDP_COMPONENT_DRM_OVL_ADAPTOR.
Finally, the path would be:

mdp_rdma -> ovl adaptor (padding) -> merge -> (ethdr is skipped here) ...
