    ice: alter feature support check for SRIOV and LAG · 4d50fcdc
    Dave Ertman authored
    Previously, the ice driver had support for using a handler for bonding
    netdev events to ensure that conflicting features were not allowed to be
    activated at the same time.  While this was still in place, additional
    support was added to specifically support SRIOV and LAG together.  These
    both utilized the netdev event handler, but the SRIOV and LAG feature was
    behind a capabilities feature check to make sure the current NVM has
    support.
    
    The exclusion part of the event handler should be removed since there are
    users who have custom made solutions that depend on the non-exclusion of
    features.
    
    Wrap the creation/registration and cleanup of the event handler and
    associated structs in the probe flow with a feature check so that the
    only systems that support the full implementation of LAG features will
    initialize support.  This will leave other systems unhindered with
    functionality as it existed before any LAG code was added.
    
    Fixes: bb52f42a ("ice: Add driver support for firmware changes for LAG")
