Subject: [PATCH 5.10 55/98] bnxt_en: Disable aRFS if running on 212 firmware

From: Michael Chan <michael.chan@...adcom.com>

[ Upstream commit 976e52b718c3de9077fff8f3f674afb159c57fb1 ]

212 firmware broke aRFS, so disable it.  Traffic may stop after ntuple
filters are inserted and deleted by the 212 firmware.

Fixes: ae10ae740ad2 ("bnxt_en: Add new hardware RFS mode.")
