Subject: [net-next v2 04/15] ice: avoid setting features during reset

From: Henry Tieman <henry.w.tieman@...el.com>

Certain subsystems behave very badly when called during reset (core
dump). This patch returns -EBUSY when reconfiguring some subsystems
during reset. With this patch some ethtool functions will not core
dump during reset.
