be2net: don't report EVB for older chipsets when SR-IOV is disabled
The EVB (virtual bridge) functionality should be disabled on older BE3 and Lancer chips if SR-IOV is disabled in the NIC's BIOS. This setting is identified by the zero value of total VFs reported by the card. The GET_HSW_CONFIG command cannot be used as it is not supported by these older chipset's FW. v2: added the comment Cc: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@broadcom.com> Cc: Ajit Khaparde <ajit.khaparde@broadcom.com> Cc: Padmanabh Ratnakar <padmanabh.ratnakar@broadcom.com> Cc: Sriharsha Basavapatna <sriharsha.basavapatna@broadcom.com> Cc: Somnath Kotur <somnath.kotur@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by:Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Acked-by:
