Subject: [PATCH net-next] nfp: flower: add check for flower VF netdevs for get/set_eeprom

From: James Hershaw <james.hershaw@...igine.com>

Move the nfp_net_get_port_mac_by_hwinfo() check to ahead in the
get/set_eeprom() functions to in order to check for a VF netdev, which
this function does not support.

It is debatable if this is a fix or an enhancement, and we have chosen
to go for the latter. It does address a problem introduced by
commit 74b4f1739d4e ("nfp: flower: change get/set_eeprom logic and enable for flower reps").
However, the ethtool->len == 0 check avoids the problem manifesting as a
run-time bug (NULL pointer dereference of app).
