net/mlx4_core: Load the Eth driver first
When running in SRIOV mode, VM that is assigned with a non-provisioned Ethernet VFs get themselves a random mac when the Eth driver starts. In this case, if the IB driver startup code that deals with RoCE runs first, it will use a zero mac as the source mac for the Para-Virtual CM MADs which is buggy. To handle that, we change the order of loading. Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
