                /* print message only when processing device capabilities
                 * during initialization.
                 */
                if (caps == &hw->dev_caps.common_cap)
                        dev_info(ice_hw_to_dev(hw), "RDMA functionality is not 
available with the current device configuration.\n");


This message is still printed whenever num_funcs > 4, regardless of the new 
mac_type != ICE_MAC_E830 check above it. On E830 devices with more than 4 
ports, RDMA now stays enabled but this log line still claims it's unavailable. 
Please gate it on the same condition used to actually disable caps->rdma.


Thanks,
