nfp_net_sriov_check is added in nfp_app_get_vf_config which intends to ensure ivi->vlan_proto and ivi->max_tx_rate/min_tx_rate can be read from VF config table only when firmware supports corresponding capability. However, "nfp_app_get_vf_config" can be called by commands like "ip a", "ip link set $DEV up" and "ip link set $DEV vf $NUM vlan $param" (with VF). When using commands above, many warnings "ndo_set_vf_<cap_x> not supported" would appear if firmware doesn't support VF rate limit and 802.1ad VLAN assingment. If more VFs are created, things could get worse. Thus, this patch add an extra bool parameter for nfp_net_sriov_check to enable/disable the cap check warning report. Unnecessary warnings in nfp_app_get_vf_config can be avoided. Valid warnings in kinds of vf setting function can be reserved.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
