Subject: [PATCH 4.12 23/52] net/mlx5e: Check for qos capability in dcbnl_initialize

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Huy Nguyen <huyn@...lanox.com>


[ Upstream commit 33c52b6718d2a6cb414440c98560818910d896dc ]

qos capability is the master capability bit that determines
if the DCBX is supported for the PCI function. If this bit is off,
driver cannot run any dcbx code.

Fixes: e207b7e99176 ("net/mlx5e: ConnectX-4 firmware support for DCBX")
