[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 4/6] net/sfc: avoid failure on port start if Rx mode is rejected

From: Ivan Malov <ivan.malov at oktetlabs.ru>

If Rx mode is unacceptable, in particular, when promiscuous
or all-multicast filters are not allowed while running over
PCI function which is not a member of appropriate privilege
groups, the driver has to cope with the failures gracefully
