Subject: [PATCH net v2 0/2][pull request] ixgbe: bypass devlink phys_port_name generation

Jedrzej adds option to skip phys_port_name generation and opts
ixgbe into it as some configurations rely on pre-devlink naming
which could end up broken as a result.

v2:
- use shorter flag name (no_phys_port_name)
- move compatibility comment to kdoc
