mlxsw: core_env: Fix driver initialization with old firmware
[ Upstream commit 7e2050a8366315aeaf0316b3d362e67cf58f3ea8 ]
The driver queries the Management Capabilities Mask (MCAM) register
during initialization to understand if it can read up to 128 bytes from
transceiver modules.
However, not all firmware versions support this register, leading to the
driver failing to load.
Fix by treating an error in the register query as an indication that the
feature is not supported.
