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: bb52f42ace ("ice: Add driver support for firmware changes for LAG")

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.
