ice: Hide bus-info in ethtool for PRs in switchdev mode
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.
After:
$ sudo lshw -c net -businfo
Bus info Device Description
=========================================
pci@0000:02:00.0 ens6f0 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
