Title:
  nfp: fix disabling on hw-tc-offload in flower

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This is a backport request from Netronome for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

  This patchset corrects the following behaviour:
  1. Add TC filter to hardware while hw-tc-offload is on
  2. Switch hw-tc-offload to off using ethtool
  3. Filters added to hardware in step 1 are still active but can no longer be 
removed. 

  The upstream solution to this problem is to prohibit switching hw-tc-
  offload to off when filters are present in hardware.

  The upstream commits, accepted for v4.16, are:
  d692403e5cf8 (“nfp: forbid disabling hw-tc-offload on representors while 
offload active”)
  0b9de4ca853b (“nfp: don't advertise hw-tc-offload on non-port netdevs”)
  e3ac6c0737e2 (“nfp: bpf: require ETH table”)
