Subject: [net-next 05/16] i40e: remove BUG_ON from FCoE setup

From: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@...el.com>

There's no need to kill the kernel thread here. If this condition was
true, the probe() would have died long before we got here. In any case,
we'll get the same result when this code tries to use the VSI pointer
being checked.

Prompted by a recent Linus diatribe.
