Subject: mlx4: Disable HA for SRIOV PF RoCE devices

From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7254acffeeec3c0a75b9c5364c29a6eb00014930 ]

When in HA mode, the driver exposes an IB (RoCE) device instance with only
one port. Under SRIOV, the existing implementation doesn't go well with
the PF RoCE driver's role of Special QPs Para-Virtualization, etc.

As such, disable HA for the mlx4 PF RoCE device in SRIOV mode.

Fixes: a57500903093 ('IB/mlx4: Add port aggregation support')
