Subject: [PATCH net 4/4] bnxt_en: Avoid unnecessary NVM_GET_DEV_INFO cmd error log on VFs.

From: Vasundhara Volam <vasundhara-v.volam@...adcom.com>

VFs do not have access permissions to issue NVM_GET_DEV_INFO
firmware command.

Fixes: 4933f6753b50 ("bnxt_en: Add bnxt_hwrm_nvm_get_dev_info() to query NVM info.")
