That's OK, welcomed to the community. :-)

-RELEASE only receive security and errata fixes, I'm not really sure that
patch should be in errata. But if others think it's worthy, I can try to do
so.

This doc should help, if there is any unclear, please report and help us
update it:

https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/cutting-edge/#current-stable

Or you can just apply that patch to 12.2-RELEASE's source and rebuild the
if_ipheth.ko module to test, if that's easier for you.

Also, using 13.0-RELEASE might be easier to install and test. Please
consider this route if you don't have a special reason to stay with 12.

Best,
Li-Wen
