    bnxt_en: Do not initialize PTP on older P3/P4 chips · e8b51a1a
    Michael Chan authored
    The driver does not support PTP on these older chips and it is assuming
    that firmware on these older chips will not return the
    PORT_MAC_PTP_QCFG_RESP_FLAGS_HWRM_ACCESS flag in __bnxt_hwrm_ptp_qcfg(),
    causing the function to abort quietly.
    
    But newer firmware now sets this flag and so __bnxt_hwrm_ptp_qcfg()
    will proceed further.  Eventually it will fail in bnxt_ptp_init() ->
    bnxt_map_ptp_regs() because there is no code to support the older chips.
    The driver will then complain:
    
    "PTP initialization failed.\n"
    
    Fix it so that we abort quietly earlier without going through the
    unnecessary steps and alarming the user with the warning log.
