Disable showing bus-info information for port representors in switchdev mode. This fixes a bug that caused displaying wrong netdev descriptions in lshw tool - one port representor displayed PF branding string, and in turn one PF displayed a "generic" description. The bug occurs when many devices show the same bus-info in ethtool, which was the case in switchdev mode (PF and its port representors displayed the same bus-info). The bug occurs only if a port representor netdev appears before PF netdev in /proc/net/dev. In the examples below: ens6fX is PF ens6fXvY is VF ethX is port representor One irrelevant column was removed from output Before: $ sudo lshw -c net -businfo Bus info Device Description ========================================= pci@0000:02:00.0 eth102 Ethernet Controller E810-XXV for SFP pci@0000:02:00.1 ens6f1 Ethernet Controller E810-XXV for SFP pci@0000:02:01.0 ens6f0v0 Ethernet Adaptive Virtual Function pci@0000:02:01.1 ens6f0v1 Ethernet Adaptive Virtual Function pci@0000:02:01.2 ens6f0v2 Ethernet Adaptive Virtual Function pci@0000:02:00.0 ens6f0 Ethernet interface Notice that eth102 and ens6f0 have the same bus-info and their descriptions are swapped.
