Thanks. Just to clarify, my first suggestion was to move
pfc_en outside of CONFIG_DCB in otx2_nic.

FWIIW, I think this could also be:

	return !!pfvf->pfc_en;

Also, I do wonder if the following can work:

	return IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DCB) && pfvf->pfc_en;

If so, perhaps this can work:

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DCB) && pfvf->pfc_en) {
		...
