In smartnic env, if the host (PF) driver is not an e-switch manager, we
are not allowed to apply eswitch ports setups such as vlan (VST),
spoof-checks, min/max rate or state.
Make sure we are eswitch manager when coming to issue these callbacks
and err otherwise.
Also fix the definition of ESW_ALLOWED to rely on eswitch_manager
capability and on the vport_group_manger.
Operations on the VF nic vport context, such as setting a mac or reading
the vport counters are allowed to the PF in this scheme.
The modify nic vport guid code was modified to omit checking the
nic_vport_node_guid_modify eswitch capability.
The reason for doing so is that modifying node guid requires vport group
manager capability, and there's no need to check further capabilities.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
